Koch discovered staphylococci in 1878. L. Pasteur obtained the pure culture of these bacteria in 1880. Later they were thoroughly studied by F. Rosenbach (1884). Classification of Staphylococci Staphylococci pertain to the family Staphylococcaceae, genus Staphylococcus. The genus Staphylococcus comprises more than 40 species. Three most common species are Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Staphylococcus saprophyticus. S. aureus is one of the major human pathogens. It causes suppurative lesions in different tissues, wound infections, food poisoning, septicemia and many other serious disorders. Other staphylococci are usually the representatives of normal human microflora of skin and mucosal tissues. Nevertheless, S. epidermidis affects immunocompromised patients and patients with implanted appliances (intravenous catheters, drains, etc.) The infections of prosthetic devices can be also caused by S. hominis and S. haemolyticus. In rare cases S. saprophyticus is able to cause urinary tract infections predominantly in young women. The rest of staphylococcal species (S. schleifeiri, S. warneri, S. capitis and many others) is not regarded as causing infections in humans. Structure and Properties of Staphylococci Morphology Staphylococci are small spherical microbes, 0.5-1 m in diameter. Microbial cells are usually grouped into irregular grape-like clusters but

Wilsona,# aDepartment of Microbiology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York, USA bDepartment of Medicine, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York, USA cBeneVir Biopharm, Inc., Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA Abstract Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a widespread pathogen that persists for life, replicating in surface tissues and establishing latency in peripheral ganglia. Increasingly, molecular studies of latency use cultured neuron models developed using recombinant viruses such as HSV-1 GFP- US11, a derivative of strain Patton expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to the viral US11 protein. Visible fluorescence follows viral DNA replication, providing a real time indicator of productive infection and reactivation. Patton was isolated in Houston, Texas, prior to 1973, and distributed to many laboratories. Although used extensively, the genomic structure and phylogenetic relationship to other strains is poorly known. We report that wild type Patton and the GFP-US11 recombinant contain the full complement of HSV-1 genes and differ within the unique regions at only eight nucleotides, changing only two amino acids. Although isolated in North America, Patton is most closely related to Asian viruses, including KOS63.

Since coccoid forms are not susceptible to antibiotics, they could represent a cause of therapy failure even in the absence of antibiotic resistance, i.e., relapse within one year. Furthermore, coccoid forms may colonize and infect the gastric mucosa in animal models and induce specific antibodies in animals and humans. Their detection is hard, since they are not culturable. Techniques, such as electron microscopy, polymerase chain reaction, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, flow cytometry and metagenomics, are promising even if current evidence is limited.

  • Lecture 4 Bacteria and Their Structure Introduction of Bacteria Shapes Of
    Lecture 4 Bacteria and their Structure Introduction of bacteria Bacteria are single celled prokaryotic unicellular microorganisms, usually a few micrometers in length that normally exist together in millions. The cell wall of bacteria usually contains peptidoglycan and multiplies by binary fission. The cell structure is simpler than that of other organisms as there is no nucleus or membrane bound organelles. Instead their control Centre containing the genetic information is contained in a single loop of DNA. Some bacteria have an extra circle of genetic material called a plasmid. The plasmid often contains genes that give the bacterium some advantage over other bacteria. For example it may contain a gene that makes the bacterium resistant to a certain antibiotic. Shapes of bacteria Most bacteria are 0.2 um in diameter and 2-8 um in length. The three basic bacterial shapes are coccus (spherical), bacillus (rod-shaped), and spiral (vibrio twisted), however pleomorphic bacteria can assume several shapes. Characteristic Groups These bacteria can give themselves higher Level structural organizations such as Cocci Cocci may be oval, elongated, or flattened on one side. Cocci may remain attached after cell division. These group characteristics are often used to help identify certain cocci. 1) Cocci that remain in pairs after dividing are called diplococci. 2) Cocci that remain in chains after dividing are called streptococci. 3) Cocci that divide in two planes and remain in groups of four are called tetrads. 4) Cocci that divide in three planes and remain in groups cube like groups of eight are called sarcinae. 5) Cocci that divide in multiple planes and form grape like clusters or sheets are called staphylococci.

  • Bacterial Size, Shape and Arrangement & Cell Structure And
    Lecture 13, 14 and 15: bacterial size, shape and arrangement & Cell structure and components of bacteria and Functional anatomy and reproduction in bacteria Bacterial size, shape and arrangement Bacteria are prokaryotic, unicellular microorganisms, which lack chlorophyll pigments. The cell structure is simpler than that of other organisms as there is no nucleus or membrane bound organelles.Due to the presence of a rigid cell wall, bacteria maintain a definite shape, though they vary as shape, size and structure. When viewed under light microscope, most bacteria appear in variations of three major shapes: the rod (bacillus), the sphere (coccus) and the spiral type (vibrio). In fact, structure of bacteria has two aspects, arrangement and shape. So far as the arrangement is concerned, it may Paired (diplo), Grape-like clusters (staphylo) or Chains (strepto). In shape they may principally be Rods (bacilli), Spheres (cocci), and Spirals (spirillum). Size of Bacterial Cell The average diameter of spherical bacteria is 0.5- 2.0 µm. For rod-shaped or filamentous bacteria, length is 1-10 µm and diameter is 0.25-1 .0 µm. E. coli , a bacillus of about average size is 1.1 to 1.5 µm wide by 2.0 to 6.0 µm long. Spirochaetes occasionally reach 500 µm in length and the cyanobacterium Accepted wisdom is that bacteria are smaller than eukaryotes. But certain cyanobacteria are quite large; Oscillatoria cells are 7 micrometers diameter. The bacterium, Epulosiscium fishelsoni , can be seen with the naked eye (600 mm long by 80 mm in diameter). One group of bacteria, called the Mycoplasmas, have individuals with size much smaller than these dimensions.

Dewals1* 1 Immunology-Vaccinology, Department of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine-FARAH, University of Liège, Liège, Belgium, 2 Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, United States Gammaherpesviruses are important pathogens that establish latent infection in their natural host for lifelong persistence. During latency, the viral genome persists in the nucleus of infected cells as a circular episomal element while the viral gene expression program is restricted to non-coding RNAs and a few latency proteins. Among these, the genome maintenance protein (GMP) is part of the small subset of genes expressed in latently infected cells.
