Bacterial Transformation01:33

Bacterial Transformation

60.2K
In 1928, bacteriologist Frederick Griffith worked on a vaccine for pneumonia, which is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. Griffith studied two pneumonia strains in mice: one pathogenic and one non-pathogenic. Only the pathogenic strain killed host mice.
Griffith made an unexpected discovery when he killed the pathogenic strain and mixed its remains with the live, non-pathogenic strain. Not only did the mixture kill host mice, but it also contained living pathogenic bacteria that...

Bacterial Signaling01:30

Bacterial Signaling

41.3K
Bacterial signaling can occur within bacteria (intracellular) or between bacteria (intercellular). At times, a group of bacteria behaves like a community. To achieve this, they engage in quorum sensing, the perception of higher cell density that causes changes in gene expression. Quorum sensing involves both extracellular and intracellular signaling. The signaling cascade starts with a molecule called an autoinducer (AI). Individual bacteria produce AIs that move out of the bacterial cell...

Bacterial RNA Polymerase00:43

Bacterial RNA Polymerase

32.9K
Unlike eukaryotes, bacteria use a single RNA Polymerase (RNAP) to transcribe all genes. The different subunits of bacterial RNAPhave distinct functions. The multisubunit structure of the bacterial RNAP helps the enzyme to maintain catalytic function, facilitate assembly, interact with DNA and RNA, and self-regulate its activity.
In most genes, the transcription site is a single base present upstream of the coding sequence. Though RNAP is a catalytically efficient enzyme, it does not recognize...

Bacterial Transcription01:53

Bacterial Transcription

36.8K
RNA polymerase (RNAP) carries out DNA-dependent RNA synthesis in both bacteria and eukaryotes. Bacteria do not have a membrane-bound nucleus. So, transcription and translation occur simultaneously, on the same DNA template.
Transcription can be divided into three main stages, each involving distinct DNA sequences to guide the polymerase. These are:

Defense Against Bacterial Pathogens01:31

Defense Against Bacterial Pathogens

2.9K
The human immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to defend the body against bacterial infections. It consists of various immune cells, each playing a specific role in the defense mechanism.
Phagocytes
Phagocytes are the frontline soldiers of the immune system. They include neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are quickly mobilized to the site of infection. Macrophages are larger cells that patrol...

Bacterial Flora of the Large Intestine01:29

Bacterial Flora of the Large Intestine

1.7K
The gut microbiome is formed by a vast and diverse community of bacteria that colonizes our large intestine. These bacteria start residing in the gut from birth and continue diversifying throughout life, influenced by factors such as diet, lifestyle, and stress. The gut bacterial community also includes bacteria from food and those that enter the colon through the anus.
The normal gut flora of the colon plays a critical role in generating essential vitamins such as vitamins K, B5, and B7.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Public Health
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Zoonoses are diseases transmitted from vertebrate animals to humans.
  • The incidence of zoonotic diseases is rising globally.
  • Factors contributing to this increase include travel, industrial farming, biodiversity loss, climate change, and deforestation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review bacterial zoonoses presenting with skin manifestations (dermato-zoonoses).
  • To provide a foundation for understanding the broader category of dermato-zoonoses, with future sections covering viral, fungal, and parasitic types.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of bacterial zoonoses with cutaneous manifestations.
  • Synthesis of information on disease transmission, impact, and characteristics.

Main Results:

  • Bacterial zoonoses represent a significant subset of dermato-zoonoses.
  • These conditions impact human and animal health, food safety, environmental management, and economies.

Conclusions:

  • Bacterial dermato-zoonoses are an important public health concern.
  • Understanding these diseases is crucial for managing their increasing prevalence and impact.
