Description : Check out this medical titled "Bacterial Genetics”.

This medical is about bacterial genetics, the study of genetic material, inheritance patterns, and gene expression in bacteria. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that reproduce through a process called binary fission, which involves the division of one cell into two identical daughter cells. Bacterial genetics is an important area of research because bacteria are responsible for many diseases, as well as being used in many important biotechnological applications.

One of the key features of bacterial genetics is the presence of plasmids, small circular pieces of DNA that can be transferred between bacteria. Plasmids often contain genes that confer antibiotic resistance or other advantageous traits, and their transfer can lead to the spread of these traits among bacterial populations. Bacterial genetics also involves the study of horizontal gene transfer, which is the transfer of genetic material between different bacterial species.

In addition, bacterial genetics involves the study of gene regulation, which refers to the mechanisms by which genes are turned on or off in response to different environmental signals. This is important because bacteria must be able to adapt to changing environments in order to survive. Bacterial genetics also includes the study of bacterial viruses, called bacteriophages, which can infect and replicate within bacterial cells and can play a role in genetic transfer between bacteria.

Overall, bacterial genetics is a broad and important field that encompasses many different aspects of the biology of bacteria. By understanding bacterial genetics, researchers can develop new strategies for treating bacterial infections and can also use bacteria for a wide range of biotechnological applications.

An "S" or SMOOTH coat strain, which is lethal to mice.

An “R" or rough coat strain, which is NOT lethal to mice.
Slide 34-

Griffith found that he could heat inactivate the smooth strain.
Slide 35-

heat-inactivated S strain, mixed with the R strain, the mouse would die. Thus there was some Material in the heat-killed S strain that was responsible for "transforming" the R strain into a lethal form.

Operons- An operon is a group of genes that are transcribed at the same time. Jacob, Monod & Lwoff They usually control an important biochemical process. They are only found in prokaryotes.
Slide 70-

Lac Operon The lac operon consists of three genes each involved in processing the sugar lactose One of them is the gene for the enzyme β-galactosidase (galactoside permease,transacetylase) This enzyme hydrolyses lactose into glucose and galactose
Slide 71-

E. coli can use either glucose, which is a monosaccharide, or lactose, which is a disaccharide However, lactose needs to be hydrolysed (digested) first So the bacterium prefers to use glucose when it can
Slide 72-

When glucose is present and lactose is absent the E. coli does not produce β-galactosidase. When glucose is present and lactose is present the E. coli does not produce β-galactosidase. When glucose is absent and lactose is absent the E. coli does not produce β-galactosidase. When glucose is absent and lactose is present the E. coli does produce β-galactosidase

Antibiotic: A drug used to treat infections caused by bacteria and other microorganisms. Originally, an antibiotic was a substance produced by one microorganism that selectively inhibits the growth of another. Synthetic antibiotics, usually chemically related to natural antibiotics, have since been produced that accomplish comparable tasks.
Slide 77-

In 1926, Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin produced by fungi that inhibited bacterial growth. In 1939, Edward Chain and Howard Florey further studied penicillin and later carried out trials of penicillin on humans (with what were deemed fatal bacterial infections). Fleming, Florey and Chain shared the Nobel Prize in 1945 for their work which ushered in the era of antibiotic
Slide 78-

An antimicrobial is a substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, or viruses. microbicidal or microbistatic.
Slide 79-

Chemotherapy Refers to treatment of disease by chemicals that kill cells, specifically those of micro-organisms or cancer
