Inoculation

possibilities of folding, meaning proteins can take many different shapes; these different conformations are known as strains. Not only this, but the prions stick to metals and plastics while retaining infectivity (Weussmann, 2002). This means no inoculation for these diseases can be developed with our current methods. The resistance of prions was shown in 1946, when sheep were vaccinated with a virus that had be inactivated with heat. The sample contained scrapie PrP, and the entire flock was…

The intent of this experiment was to successfully transform synechocystis to a psbC lacking species through double homologous recombination. Subsequently we intended to retransform the mutated colonies back to the psbC carrying species after kanamycin selection. The initial knockout of the psbC gene ensured that photosystem II wouldn’t work and the colonies would rely on glucose as a source of sustainable nutrition. The sequential addition of kanamycin killed off the species that lacked the KanR…

One of the leading causes of bacterial meningitis is Neisseria meningitidis, which can be acquired globally. N. meningitidis is normal flora in the human nasopharynx, but if an individual becomes susceptible, it can lead to bacterial meningitis. Incidence of N. meningitidis is strongly influenced by age. Infants have the highest risk for meningococcal disease. Low serum bactericidal antibody levels play a large role in those that are at risk for infection. Those with compromised immune…

Clostridium tetani is a bacillus, or rod-shaped bacteria responsible for the often-fatal disease tetanus. The word tetanus originated from the Greek word tetanos, which means to ‘stretch’. It is a Gram-positive bacterium and often appears to be shaped like a tennis racket, drumstick, or club when stained. This unusual appearance is the result of sporulation that occurs within the cell. C. tetani is an obligate anaerobe and relies solely on fermentation. Since it is an obligate anaerobe, this…
