vertical gene transfer
|
occurs during reproduction between generation of cells
|
|
Horizontal gene transfer
|
the transfer of genes between cells of the same generation
-one bacterium donates DNA to a recipient bacterium |
|
Genetic Recombination
|
Exchange of genes between two DNA molecules
-crossing over occurs when two chromosomes break and rejoin |
|
Transformation
|
bacteria pick up "naked" DNA in the enviroment. and Bacillus,Haemophilus, Neisseria,Acinetobacter,Streptococcus, Staphylococcus they transform naturally-competent
|
|
Genetic transformation
|
Bacteria pick up naked DNA in the enviroment
|
|
conjugation
|
genetic material transferred from one bacterium to another through contact and in gram (-) bacteria plasmid usually carries genes for the construction of a sex pillus
gram (+) produce sticky surface molecules |
|
What is this picture showing?
|
Bacterial Conjugation
|
|
This is showing which form of transfer and bacterium?
|
Conjugation of E. Coli
|
|
transduction
|
bacterial DNA transferred from a donor cell to a recipient cell inside a bacteriophage
|
|
bacteriophage
|
virus that infects bacteria
|
|
Steptococcus pyogenes causes what?
|
scarlet fever and has a red color the (enthrogenic toxin)
|
|
Transduction by...?
|
Bacteriophage
|
|
E. coli is found naturally in the human large intestine, and there it is beneficial. However, the strain designated E. coli O157:H7 produces Shiga toxin. How did E. coli acquire this gene from Shigella?
|
transduction
|
|
Plasmids
|
self replicating,gene-containing circular pieces of DNA
|
|
This is showing what?
|
Repair(these enzymes are powered by light) of DNA
|
|
Bacterial chromosomes are what shape?
|
circular
|
|
UV light is a form of ...?
|
mutagenic radiation
|
|
Direct UV light on DNA can cause...?
|
the formation of harmful covalent bonds between certain bases
|
|
Photolyases
|
known also as light repair enzymes use visiable light energy to separate the dimer back to the original two thymines.
|
|
Nucleotide excision repair
|
not restricted to UV-induced damage;it can repair mutations from other causes as well.
