what are the 5 phylum of firmicutes?
what are the 3 phylum of actinobacteria? |
ssbcm
streptococcus staphylococcus bacillus clostridium mollictutes SHM streptomyces heliobacter mycobacterium |
|
Streptococcus
|
cocci chains
complex nutritional req release enzymes to break down org material tolerant anerobes - grow by fermentaion of sugars even in the presence of oxygen |
|
notable streptococcus pathogens
|
streptococus pyogenes- scarlet fever
streptococcus pneumoniae |
|
staphylococcus
|
grape clusters
fac aerobes- no o2 they ferment to make lactic acid skin and mucous membranes - s aerous non pathogenic and some can cause food poisoning |
|
bacillus
|
aerobic rod shaped
form endospores |
|
what are the 2 steps to endosposre growth?
|
1-veg growth - normal period of growth
2-sporulation- period of endospore formation switch bt two occurs when nutrients deplete |
|
most notable bacillus pathogens
|
bacillus anthraxis
bacillus cereus- food poisoning bacillus thuringiensis-insect pathogen |
|
clostriduium
|
obligate anerobes lack e chain
get energy thru substrate level phosphorylation strickland rxn endospores |
|
most notable clostriduium pathogens
|
c.tetani
c.perfringens-gas gangrene c.botulism |
|
mollicutes
|
no cell wall
related to clostridium complex nutritional req-path or parasitic myco. pneumoniae - pneumonia |
|
phylum actinobacteria
mycobacteriium |
non motile
rod shaped with brancing mycelia make mycolic acids that are linked to peptidoglycan |
|
nost notable mycobacterium pathogens
|
m. tuberculosis
m, leprae |
|
streptomyces
|
mycelial soil bacteria - produce antiobiotics
sporolate as differentiation process |
|
what are the sporulation steps?
|
cells grow as branching substrate mycelium
nutrient depletion - substrate growth stops and aerial hyphae emerge and grow verticaly antibiotics produced(to kill competeitotrs) aerial hyphae diff to chains of spores |
|
heliobacter
|
only PS gram + bacteria known
photoheterotrophs - uses organic molecules can't grow autotrophically make endospores |
