00:19 right. Yeah. Okay. Testing testing. Okay. Uh

00:46 just testing. Testing. It's not loud. Hold on. Testing.

00:58 . Okay. Um wait a Hmm. Testing testing. Testing.

01:14 as it usually is. All I'll shout. Um All right.

01:20 , uh so we continue on with genetics. Um So, let's kind

01:26 just think about big picture. in our context with microbes that cause

01:34 . Okay. So, um let's just know this. I forgot my

01:42 today. So, I'll just throw questions and we'll just answer um

01:49 Right? So, since bacteria produced binary fission, no one can assume

01:53 members of a given species are genetically , correct? No. We talked

02:01 that last time. Right? um you would think that by binary

02:08 that they might xerox machine just make copies. Okay. Doesn't work that

02:13 . Because they do have the ability um gain genetic variety. Okay.

02:21 we'll talk about those mechanisms today. talked about one last time which is

02:26 . Okay, So, mutation can the genetic code. Certainly creating variants

02:31 the population. So, in colonies a plate, right, Colonies on

02:40 plate. So, you look at millions of cells in that colony,

02:45 going to be uh 1% or so we're gonna have changes. Okay.

02:50 there be something that will you know of significance? Maybe? Maybe

02:56 But um because bacteria can spontaneously mutate a certain rate. May not crazy

03:04 , I mean, but higher than than we do. Okay. But

03:10 they grow so fast and we can , you know if there are changes

03:15 can see these in, you certainly in the short time frame.

03:21 . And so it's this kind of of of of genetic material by the

03:29 we'll talk about today are how a of these drug resistant types are now

03:34 um a particular bacterium acquires a mutation creates a resistance to a drug and

03:42 that is passed on and it's often on by these mechanisms. We'll talk

03:46 today horizontal gene transfer. Okay. so it can rapidly spread throughout the

03:52 . Ok. So many of your resistant types? That's how this

03:58 Okay, so um the so again horizontal gene transfer. This is

04:09 Okay. Just think mother to child you will. Right. That's how

04:14 inherited your genes. It's through vertical bacteria can also do do through um

04:20 so through horizontal gene transfer. And so um so let's look at

04:32 . So this diagram so the the big purple circle that represents all

04:39 the genes that we know of of the coal eyes that have been studied

04:46 analyzed in this way. So there's A little over 10,000 different genes have

04:55 found among all the allies that have studied. Um So of that

05:04 Purple. Okay a smaller set so coli so an average e coli

05:12 we'll have about 55,000 genes. Think of uh in a you've heard

05:22 gene pool. Right so all these there's there's many more genes among us

05:27 we don't have all the genes that out there. Okay that that are

05:30 by humans. But we have a gene pool. Right? Of

05:35 Right? So similarly here the average 5000. Doesn't have all all of

05:41 ones that are among all the coal . Okay. But it has about

05:45 . And then within that what we the smallest circle the red red circle

05:52 is genes common to every E. so every cola has those. It's

05:59 makes them an E. Coli. so things like and these are like

06:03 really critical function type stuff like DNA components code things that code for

06:12 The protein synthesis certain metabolic pathways that so aspiration. These are things that

06:18 common to all all members but certainly be differences. Okay. And so

06:25 it's really the the genes the genes aren't core genes, those other ones

06:32 ones that vary from the E coli are the ones that can that can

06:37 passed along through these horizontal transfer Okay and so the E coli genome

06:46 pretty much represents you know all bacterial for the most part in terms of

06:52 numbers you see here and don't worry memorizing the numbers but just to point

06:57 that unlike um our DNA the bacterial . N. A. Is much

07:05 most of the information is there to or something. Okay um remember that

07:12 any genome Not everything not every gene for a protein. Ok most do

07:19 you do have what we call genes ribosomes. RNA transfer RNA genes.

07:29 product of those is R. A. It's not a protein.

07:32 there are some of those but certainly coding genes are the majority uh and

07:38 a portion that's involved in control of genes. Okay so for humans it's

07:44 way different in humans. Only about is code for anything. Okay the

07:54 majority is involved in different types of and uh and really some a lot

08:00 unknown functions. So um way different precarious DNA but in any case so

08:10 focusing back on the differences. So have our E. Coli and um

08:18 are 22 strains. One is called . 12 K 12. Like your

08:23 lab E. Coli strain that you um The 0. 157 that is

08:31 um one that's been in a number outbreaks related to produce. So that

08:39 was one of those that was hit this restaurant contaminated spinach or salad or

08:45 . I forget what it was but it's responsible for a number of different

08:51 outbreaks. Okay and so if we at those two week allies and certainly

08:57 must be some differences. Obviously one disease one doesn't and so there's actually

09:03 more genes possessed by 0157 That 12 doesn't have. And those are

09:11 that are involved in uh causing Okay so excuse me. So um

09:22 again just to point out that uh this point that you know even though

09:27 coli eyes, you know like any replicates through binary fission, you think

09:32 they're all going to be the No gonna be definite differences. And

09:35 differences Uh can be attributed to the the acquisition of DNA from other

09:43 You see? 20%. That's a a large chunk of his genome.

09:48 been acquired from other microbes through these of conjugation, transformation et cetera.

09:57 um so here I just show you quick on the review of each of

10:01 will look at a little more detail some of these as we go along

10:06 . So so in this process there's source or donor of the D.

10:14 . A segment. And so um so we're talking about the nature of

10:22 here, operative word is fragment. , we're not transferring an entire chromosome

10:29 in any of these processes. We're a piece of it. And so

10:36 can be a circular form. Uh can be in a linear form.

10:41 , circular form would be something like plasma. And we'll talk about

10:45 Um Let's see all these four Okay now a very important process that's

10:53 in all these is recombination, This this donor DNA will match up

11:08 parts of the chromosome and become a of that chromosome. Okay so recombination

11:16 that happen. Okay. So so a piece of it's a linear piece

11:23 DNA. Okay. Like that. this. Okay. And that gets

11:31 a cell. Like you see there lifetime of that fragment is going to

11:37 very low because the cell is probably think it's a viral infection going

11:42 I'm just gonna get rid of Okay. And so if it's going

11:46 exist it better recombine with the chromosome become a part of the chromosome then

11:52 will be able to stay in that . Okay. If it's a circle

11:57 form, these don't have to So it can exist like if that's

12:07 donor D. N. A. can exist as a circle in the

12:09 . Right? So the cells sense when there's a linear piece of

12:15 That that's not normal. Okay. probably represents a viral infection going I'll

12:20 about viruses. I think next But but when it's a linear piece

12:25 D. N. A. And how the bacterial. So that's weird

12:28 it. Let's put it that way that's doesn't look right. I'm getting

12:31 of it. Right? But there's to still recombine possibly. But um

12:36 if it's a circular piece that doesn't weird. And so plasmas are that

12:41 and they can be they can exist way. Okay so but but recombination

12:49 a part of um is a part all four of these processes.

12:57 transaction conjugation, transformation. And even the circle form we'll see in the

13:04 form. But it can exist out . Just stay out here outside the

13:10 . Or it can recombine with that as well so it can actually combine

13:17 become part of the chromosome. We'll that too. So those variations are

13:21 possible. Okay so by recombining then that molecule the donor DNA becomes a

13:30 part now of that chromosome. Um and in the process of course

13:38 recipient is you know could be receiving new jeans right? Or maybe jeans

13:46 it has already but they're kind of and so by getting acquiring new new

13:51 of them, it can fix those . Okay so there's different uses for

13:59 uh this D. N. Okay so here are the mechanisms.

14:05 so transformation so the way that each is fairly easy to characterize in other

14:14 you can you can break down the types by just a couple of

14:18 Okay so for transformation it's simply just uptake of DNA from the environment.

14:24 it. There's nothing really more Nothing more complicated than that. Okay

14:29 and again these are gonna be fragments DNA that's in the environment of course

14:33 from you know cells that an environment you die. When you die they

14:38 and whatever is in them spills out the environment. And DNA fragments to

14:43 chromosome. And they sell will not has a finite life in staying as

14:49 intact chromosome breaks up environmental conditions or . So there'll be fragments in the

14:56 and those are potentially can be taken by cells. And so that's what

15:00 call transformation. Okay. Conjugation Now two selves coming together and there's a

15:09 for that happening. A one of pill I um cells that can do

15:15 have a special sex pilots that connects two cells and is through there where

15:23 will copy a part of this is through plasmid transfer. Okay. And

15:30 copy will be sent to the recipient transaction virus. That's the key for

15:37 process is a virus is the one the intermediate. Okay, so viral

15:43 occurs and when that virus affects another , what happens is in the process

15:51 virus accidentally by mistake packages host DNA of host DNA. And then when

16:02 infects another cell now it's given it piece of DNA. So the virus

16:08 the one that's carrying it across. , transposition the process involving these mobile

16:19 elements, small segments um and transpose are in all life forms. We

16:27 them as well. And they kind they used to be called jumping

16:35 They would uh come out and then insert themselves in a different part of

16:40 chromosome and that's what they do. They generally just move around the

16:47 Yeah. So that's it only happens the sex pilots. Only happens with

16:59 . Yeah. Um transposition. So the normal processes the transpose on kind

17:09 just flips and flops around chromosome. that high rate but it does that

17:14 . Okay. But there can be when that transpose on hitches a ride

17:23 a plasma and then that's the So it kind of combines with conjugation

17:30 get it transferred. Okay. And and then that new cell can acquire

17:37 gene or genes are on this Ok, so top to bottom it's

17:45 uptake of naked DNA doesn't involve anything . Conjugation. two cells coming together

17:54 the virus transposition transpose on. So we'll look at some of these

18:01 or less detail. Starting with Yeah. Well not quite. So

18:12 this is um the fate of N. A. Acquired.

18:16 So I kind of mentioned this But so here's external DNA that comes

18:23 and you know, it could be food source, right? You can

18:26 down nuclear tides. That's carbon carbon you can eat that. So you

18:30 do that. Um certainly can recombine the chromosome. Okay, recombination.

18:39 ? And now it's acquired these segments DNA. Right? So um I

18:46 coexist right Either um as a class outside the chromosome you see here?

18:56 it could integrate. Right? This integrate into the chromosome. Right?

19:01 or it could be degraded, Could be degraded users. So those

19:06 kind of three faiths. Especially if a linear piece of DNA coming

19:13 You're gonna be more susceptible to Getting eaten part. The cell actually

19:19 it's probably a viral infection. But it could recombine before anything happens to

19:25 . Okay. Um Okay. And this part here is just it's just

19:33 show you I'm not going into any here. But the main the main

19:41 involved in this is this wreck a stands for recombination recombination. A

19:49 Okay so this is so there has be some you can't take two completely

19:58 um D. N. A pieces make them come together. There has

20:03 be some some level of hm Right? So remember it's all about

20:11 . A. G. C. . T. C. G.

20:15 . Write the base base pairing. , coming together base pair. That's

20:20 it is. So it has to some some commonality in terms of base

20:24 that are common where the where the can begin to recombine with the

20:30 Okay so that'll be some level of complementary base pairing between the two.

20:37 um and so direct aid actually helps out. Direct a takes hold of

20:44 end and begins to look for Where is that similarity Where where I

20:49 start um complementary base pairing and make a part of the chromosome. Okay

20:56 again if it if it does happen as you see here then it could

21:03 a it could insert itself where there a non functional form of that gene

21:09 now it's functional. Okay so repairing a defective gene, it could be

21:15 new gene doesn't even have and so can give it some new features.

21:20 But of course it's by acquiring this D. N. A. It

21:25 create a variation within the population. um so again with all four of

21:33 processes this this is a big part of of it being successful.

21:40 Combination. Okay. Um Okay so questions while you're reading this? Okay

21:50 transformation is asking about transformation? Right this requires that it requires cell to

21:57 contact. If you think yes raise hand as it required a viral intermediate

22:07 a sex pilots. Does it require plasma? Does require DNA fragments in

22:14 environment? Yeah the other choices here days we haven't talked about that's involved

22:21 transposition. So it's E. Transformation E. Okay and there's other terms

22:31 with transformation. And so this way um the transformation was found out even

22:44 it was not even known what DNA in terms of inheritance at this

22:51 early 1900s and so um what was was using a particular bacterium, streptococcus

23:02 , which is the most common cause bacterial pneumonia. Okay. Um and

23:09 actually two forms, there's a a that causes a full blown disease.

23:17 then there's a form that is a that doesn't and for this bacterium,

23:25 thick capsule is part of the way crosses disease. It enables it to

23:33 from the immune system etcetera. So a capsule for this guy is essential

23:38 it to cause disease. And so mutant form doesn't have that.

23:42 And it gives it a what's called rough appearance. So they typically call

23:46 the rough and smooth, smooth encapsulated . And so you see the over

23:55 the S form or smooth is is pathogen and the rough is lacking the

24:03 . So when we inject mice with smooth form, the mice mouse dies

24:07 pneumonia, the one with the rust is fine. No problem. So

24:13 he kind of did some mixing and here. And he first took heat

24:21 encapsulated uh bacteria as smooth types. heat inactivated them injected and the mice

24:31 not um die. They weren't viable . And so when he mixed these

24:41 heat killed types alright from here and them with the live rough mutant cells

24:51 didn't cause disease. Then he whoa objected in the mouse and is

24:56 . Okay, so that's where he this phrase transformation stating that the dead

25:05 captivated cells here we'll certainly have Okay. And their DNA would have

25:12 into the surrounding medium. Okay. then that D. N.

25:19 Fragments would have been taken up by cell, transformed it transformed it into

25:27 deadly cell cell type. Okay. so they would have been a fragment

25:33 that capsule gene and maybe some other genes to be a pathogen took it

25:40 re combined and boom it became now disease causing type. So it transforms

25:48 . That's they called they called it D. N. A. So

25:52 called the thing that moved from cell cell the transforming principle. Okay.

25:58 course they found out uh not long that that actually was D.

26:03 A. That was doing the transfer in this. But um but that

26:10 of course the first example of horizontal transfer. Okay and so the process

26:21 . Okay again up take a naked . So competence is a word you

26:28 with transformation and only with transformation Right? When cells are competent,

26:35 are ready to take up DNA. you shouldn't get the idea that Number

26:43 , not all bacterial types can do . Okay. Um those that do

26:52 it are capable of it aren't in state of being able to take it

26:56 all the time. Okay. So have to become competent first and that

27:04 different kind of chemical signals and stuff not gonna get into but just know

27:10 um they have to be in a of readiness to do because there's certain

27:15 that have to be synthesized in the to help them take into DNA.

27:20 it's kind of about that. Um so it's not just any cell

27:25 just suck it up out of the . No it's a complicated process it

27:30 involves different parts to help take it and whatnot. But when you're in

27:34 that state to be ready then you're . Right? So um now in

27:39 lab the E coli is used all time for this. So the techniques

27:46 you may have heard of cloning right? Competent D. N.

27:51 . These kind of things you do lab to manipulate genes in order to

27:56 them. Okay, transformation is a part of that because you're taking a

28:02 and you're using that cell to make of your D. N.

28:05 Okay you have to sell copy your and make lots of it that you're

28:10 but you have to get in there use transformation, do that. So

28:14 coli does not do this naturally there called uh so that naturally do

28:23 And cells that can't you have to make them competent. Okay you can

28:29 chemicals, you can use electric These are processes that will force the

28:34 to take it up when it normally . And so in lab that you

28:39 of do those things, We've made coli our blank. Okay. You

28:45 think of the right word there. not gonna say it. We've made

28:49 it our you know what in the right? To make it make it

28:52 what we want to do with Right. And so kind of forming

28:55 is one of those things because you how to grow and grow it fast

28:58 it's a good vehicle to get our . N. A copied.

29:04 So anyway um so you know with um transformation, the keys are being

29:15 . Okay. There are cells that take this up but they have to

29:20 competent first. They do they take in recombination is going to be a

29:24 part of this because they're generally taking linear fragments of DNA from the

29:30 So it had better be able to with that chromosome. It was going

29:34 become a permanent part of that Okay. Um And so so that

29:41 aren't naturally competent, we make them . And again, we only do

29:46 only do artificial transformation for our own obviously. Right? It's not something

29:56 it's for resource purposes. What have ? Okay. Um If we want

30:01 express a gene in a certain type bacterial cell and it will not naturally

30:08 , then we make it do Alright. That's the only kind of

30:10 we do artificial transformation. Okay. Any questions about transformation? Okay.

30:19 right. So plasma so plasmas gets into conjugation then. Okay. Because

30:26 how they're these are transferred. So are small circular extra chromosome.

30:35 pieces of DNA generally there's like you'll various ranges and books and whatnot in

30:43 experience um I work with sizes that generally around 5 to 10,000 bases.

30:54 that on average is is what most . But you can get some that

30:59 on the extreme ends even upwards of base pairs. But regardless um it's

31:07 much smaller than the chromosome is of . Okay. And so it'll carry

31:11 few genes on and one of the ones is boxed in original replication and

31:21 for short original replication we have them our chromosomes multiple. It's it's the

31:30 where DNA begins to be replicated. ? So if a D.

31:34 A has an ori it can be . Okay. It has to have

31:39 ORI origin replication to be able to copied and because plasmas have those have

31:46 own they can copy themselves. Okay plasmas work independent of chromosomes. So

31:55 chromosome remember will only replicate when the is going to divide. Right,

32:01 don't have that restriction. They don't about that. Right. They can

32:05 copy themselves as they want. autonomous we call it. Okay.

32:13 so it's plasmids that can be what called conjugated if it's a conjugated

32:20 that word means it can be copied transferred to another cell. Okay.

32:27 there are parts of the plasmid that to be present for that to

32:33 Okay. So there's multiple genes involved that as you see here, that

32:40 pilots and conjugation proteins in that segment of transfer. So we have an

32:50 when specific for making copies of the . We have another type down the

32:57 that's specific for when it's going to transferred to another cell. Hence origin

33:03 transfer. So it will copy from when congregations going to occur and it's

33:09 to be copied and passed to another . Okay, so it's cells that

33:16 like this right cells that have this . We call them F factors.

33:24 the F factor is actually the parts involved in conjugation. Okay. That

33:34 is essentially the effect of the parts make it be able to be

33:38 Okay, because that factor will have genes with it besides that.

33:44 So you can see on here we these things this this this this this

33:53 and and let's see yeah, so and here is tet right, that's

34:07 resistance. Right? And so these these other other designations are sites where

34:16 can cut the platform but there's also for different antibiotics. Tetracycline is one

34:22 them. Okay, so this thing be since it has the f

34:27 right? It can congregate then this be passed on and the next cell

34:31 inherit Tetracycline resistance put plus whatever else on there. So again it's obvious

34:41 when this is transferred all the genes there are ending up in other cells

34:46 they can express their basically spreading those right throughout the population this way.

34:54 what are the types of genes on besides antibiotic resistance that they call those

35:01 plasmids or are factors okay if it that violence genes so things like and

35:10 certain toxins um uh maybe uh jeans a pillar or something, structures that

35:19 disease to occur can be passed on plasma. Cata bolic genes. So

35:24 a metabolic pathway. Genes for metabolic are on there. That's not

35:30 So um and so the other point is of course it's it's it's a

35:35 a few genes are being carried on plasma. Okay. And so um

35:40 can potentially be passed on and other can inherit it now. Um artificial

35:52 , these are ones we've constructed in lab for our own purposes. So

35:57 just mentioned the term cloning genes We we construct plasmids to have the

36:03 we want in them and to this and age is relatively easy to

36:09 Okay. But it's a way to of control everything. So we can

36:16 experiment with what we want to okay constructing it. So so the

36:24 okay, is uh involved again? parts one of them, of course

36:32 pilots and the sex pilots recall um pilots in the context of twitching

36:42 right? It would send out a , it would stick to a

36:47 then it would diploma rise shortened and would then as a result move that

36:54 similar with the sex pilots. You elongate by adding more substance to it

37:02 you can shorten it by taking them and so it actually draws the

37:08 So you have a donor and Okay. And so what we called

37:13 . Plus is a donor. So an F. Plus F mice.

37:21 initially there may be farther apart, when the pilots connects to it,

37:26 draw itself in closer. Okay. that's as you see here.

37:34 And so that that's because that pilot not exactly um it's fragile.

37:43 So they say this part of this apart is more much more likely that

37:48 occurs and it disrupts the process, ? So by connecting and bringing together

37:53 much more stable connection. Okay so time there's enough time for significant amount

38:00 being passed between them. Okay? you know, I'll show I'm gonna

38:05 you an animation of this as And so then of course I'm gonna

38:11 so this is what we call just basic um F. Plus two F

38:18 cell conjugation and the F minus ends as F. Plus. Okay,

38:24 we're gonna copy the they come they form what's called a conjugation bridge

38:30 them. The defector gets copied and copy gets put into the recipient

38:40 And now the F minus has become . Plus. Okay. And so

38:50 let me before I talk about so let's stop there and let me

38:53 the animation. Okay. Uh Not one. He's my other one.

39:08 see. No, no. Uh gotta get my other, hold on

39:20 second me back out of this Okay. Right that one.

39:38 so here's our effect. Er So so we not that again. All

39:52 . It may be because of So let me try this, hold

39:58 . Um Okay uh back, Alright, so I gotta do something

40:17 up with the video. Sorry about , I'll get it working next

40:20 So that's just a couple of So in the video you would have

40:28 is basically the same thing here, kind of all happening in motion.

40:33 we see that when they conjugate. , this one actually had a friend

40:41 on it. Okay. And the was passed in between and okay,

40:57 then it inherited, so that's a . This F minus inherits chromosome and

41:06 we see. Okay, that's the minus, that's become F.

41:17 Okay, there's the F. Factor we see them in the video that

41:27 like a chia pet. The hair pop up. Okay. The bottom

41:33 meaning that as as that thing inherited then expressed what was on there.

41:38 apparently there was a genius. And then the F minus cell gained,

41:44 that function. Now it's full Okay. Just the point. You

41:48 that whatever is on that plasma, genes can be expressed in the recipient

41:52 and then expresses those new traits Okay so the other thing to notice

41:58 that um because we're going to see process next, that's a little bit

42:04 . But the important point here is the F. Plus is carrying that

42:09 factor outside the chromosome. Right? in in what we call an

42:14 F. R. Formation, so formation of HF are um requires doesn't

42:24 virus. Alright so virus transaction nothing . Okay uh It would um it

42:32 require actually it wouldn't require DNA fragments the environment. That's transformation.

42:39 Um it wouldn't require transpose is that's . Okay so eliminate those right off

42:45 bat out out. Um It um really a F. Factor integrated into

43:05 chromosome. Okay so it already is F. Plus plus cell F.

43:13 cell. But the F factor isn't outside the chromosome by itself. It's

43:20 the chromosome. Okay so it's still plus. It's just in this integrated

43:25 we call it HFR. Okay and it looks like this. So we

43:34 an F. Plus cell and at frequency. Okay. At some frequency

43:41 process happens where the plasmid there's recombination . Recombined with the chromosome.

43:49 And now it's integrated. Okay. that's an H. F. R

43:54 . Okay. And those that can that now now is the the integrated

44:05 plus inside the chromosome means that now entire chromosome can be copied and

44:13 Okay. But that rarely if ever . And there's a main reason for

44:22 . Okay. So here's a congregation H. F. R. And

44:27 minus. All right. So it involves having to have an F minus

44:33 . So again so the difference here course is we're copying and transferring.

44:38 a small plasma but the big Okay. And the um the reason

44:50 the entire thing isn't copied and It depends on how long those cells

44:56 together for an E. Coli chromosome is on the upper end range of

45:02 chromosomes. In terms of size It's five million five million base pairs.

45:10 would take over 90 minutes to transfer entire thing and they don't hang around

45:17 long. Okay. Together. Generally you know, you can have Even

45:25 the lab-controlled conditions where you minimize vibrations that kind of a thing.

45:31 in the room it's you know I'm say on average probably about 20 minutes

45:36 40 minutes is the range at which hang together not much longer than

45:41 So what that means is um you copy the entire chromosome and all the

45:48 into another cell. A portion of gets there. And so so here

45:54 can see you may not be able see it very well but the portion

46:00 was transferred and the recipient cell was this much. Okay that block that

46:10 of material was transferred. That's and relates to how long they stuck

46:16 Okay. Um so you can right so this is the f minus

46:25 HFR F minus And it's still an minus. Okay so it acquired the

46:36 of the of this new D. . A. But it didn't become

46:40 F plus like it did in the mechanism. Okay because back here the

46:49 here the entire the entire plasma was . Okay. To the whole thing

47:03 transferred to the other cell. And meant because remember that factor is all

47:08 parts to be able to congregate. ? It's what makes it an

47:11 Plus. So the entire F plus up in the f minus cell making

47:18 that plus. Right? But in conjugation. Okay the um the parts

47:32 f. Part F plus F plus of of this chromosome continue the F

47:40 right? Is at the very end the chromosome. Right? So it's

47:46 the very end of it. So don't stay together long enough for the

47:52 minus to inherit the F factor. . That would enable it to be

47:58 congregate. Right so all the Plus means the cell is F.

48:05 . That means it's capable of copying transferring that factor. Okay It means

48:13 can congregate and pass it on. right. But it has to have

48:17 parts. It has to have the pilots gene and it has to have

48:21 other components specific to that process. in the HFR those parts are located

48:28 the very end of the chromosome. last part that would be transferred and

48:32 don't stay together long enough for the to get that. But just because

48:38 F minus here did not inherit It's not it's not horrific. Okay

48:44 it. Yeah it can't congregate that but it's still inherited. No this

48:52 segment of D. N. And it can divide by binary fission

48:57 pass it on that way. Okay it don't take it to me and

49:02 a negative because it's not it's still potentially acquire new genes. It just

49:07 pass them on to conjugation. It'll to rely on vertical transfer. Right

49:12 fission to do that. Okay and it's all it's only because of the

49:19 of where those F. Plus the . Plus part of that thing is

49:25 it's just at the very end in and it doesn't get transferred. There's

49:28 enough time for that to happen. um Any question about that. Okay

49:41 transaction. Okay Virus Easy one transaction a virus we haven't talked about viruses

49:51 . We will. So let's look the process of what we call generalized

50:00 . Okay so we'll learn I guess week that um with bacterial viruses like

50:10 virus writer virus infects a host right a host to replicate itself. So

50:18 material virus begins by recognizing the host to it and then inserting its

50:27 Right? So that's what you see it's fate attachment. Then you see

50:33 viral genome entering the cell. Okay of the steps that occurs is that

50:39 virus begins to break down the host . It actually uses it. It

50:47 the nuclear tides from that to make own D. N. A.

50:51 nonetheless the host DNA. Is fragmented the virus. Okay then part of

50:57 stage of any viral life cycle is copies of my genome and make viral

51:06 and assemble everything. Making new Okay now and part of that process

51:12 what's called packaging right is taking the DNA. That's been made and then

51:19 into a virus structure to make a virus. Right well what happens at

51:26 low frequency that an error is made that packaging and so host. So

51:33 see your bacterial donated darker purple. so here's the host D.

51:41 A. In the dark purple. that got packaged instead of viral

51:49 Okay so host DNA got packed into viral DNA. Okay so now that

51:59 fage the fage can still infect another . But it's just not passing along

52:06 it's not inserting its chromosome. It's inserting the DNA of the previous

52:11 Okay so bacterial DNA. Is being . And so um here is so

52:22 then that host D. N. . Which would be there would recombine

52:31 that new host and become a part that new that new hosts DNA.

52:41 so you know obviously the virus was the virus was the mechanism to get

52:46 D. N. A. In in the next host. Okay and

52:49 course that cell can divide and then that those genes on to future

52:56 Okay and so um again all facilitated by this viral infection that was the

53:05 of this. Okay and so um in this generalized transaction theoretically any any

53:18 these DNA fragments from the host could been packaged. Okay what that means

53:25 potentially any gene in that original host have been transferred. Okay any

53:34 Right so it's very non specific. what they call it generalized. Okay

53:40 there is a process called specialized Okay so generalized any host I mean

53:46 any segment here can be packaged accidentally passed off. Okay and specialized transaction

53:54 the more complicated. We're not going go into details of it. But

53:58 specialized transaction there's only a select few are transferred. Okay so it's much

54:04 specific. Much more narrow in terms the types of genes that can be

54:09 compared to generalized transaction. But nonetheless toxins you see there are passed along

54:16 specialized transaction. Um The uh just I'll just say that um specialized transaction

54:28 due to, well it actually become when we get to next week and

54:34 talk about these things but there's a virus type. Okay that actually let's

54:44 it like that. Okay. Fage . N. A. Host

54:54 N. A. Here and So the bacterial virus has inserted itself

55:01 D. N. A. Into host chromosome. Okay that's what it's

55:05 . That's that's where you see the transaction where this fage puts its genome

55:12 the host genome. Okay. And happens is at a low rate it

55:19 come out of that host. And normally what happens is so the this

55:30 the viral D. N. And that's what would come out just

55:35 but at a very low rate what is that comes out comes out cock

55:42 . Okay so in other words it out here to hear instead it's shifted

55:50 little bit to one side or the . And so now you see that

55:56 there's host DNA. All right so little a little portion on one end

56:03 transferred with that virus right? Or could be shifted the other way and

56:10 this portion maybe it's transferred. And so that's what it's only it's

56:16 a one side or the other and a small portion so it's very selective

56:21 terms of what gets transferred. So fewer than than generalized transaction. And

56:29 because of the way the page integrates when it comes out it takes a

56:33 bit of peace because it does it out clean? Okay. But again

56:39 see that next week. But that's of how specialized transaction is different.

56:46 um so the transaction virus the virus the go between. Okay um transpose

56:56 . Okay so these um naturally occur all species I'm pretty sure um They

57:11 and they typically move around within the individual species. Cell move around within

57:22 same cell in the in the same chromosomes. Okay. At a low

57:29 as you see there. Okay and a. Um and this is brought

57:36 by an enzyme called a transpose okay so the simplest of these is

57:44 called an insertion sequence. Okay S. And so you see the

57:53 gene which is translated into the transposed and that enzyme is what produces cuts

58:05 the in these sequences called inverted Okay and so we call it that

58:15 if we look at this sequence. . A. T. C.

58:20 . G. T. A. we look at it here it's the

58:26 A. C. T. A. But it's just been

58:30 So hence inverted repeats. Okay and that's that's recognized by the transpose so

58:37 can cut itself out and then insert somewhere else on the chromosome.

58:44 Um Now a more complex form has at the top plus one or more

58:53 . So this one is carrying Okay so you see the I.

58:59 . Ones are now on either right in the middle is um Another

59:07 can be more than one but Um and T. and five is a

59:11 transpose on. That's that's one that does carry that Um antibiotic resistance.

59:18 so there are a few like n. five that carry resistance to

59:23 antibiotics. Okay I think some of are found in the bacteria that causes

59:31 . Mycobacterium tuberculosis has a transpose on it that that confers antibiotic resistance.

59:40 . Um so now moving around, So normally these things just move around

59:48 the same chromosome in the same cell that's all they do. Okay.

59:54 they may hitch a ride. Okay so they hitch a ride with a

60:03 . Okay so here is a chromosome that T. N. TN is

60:13 for transpose. Um Okay so here's transpose um in the chromosome chromosome and

60:25 is a plasma. Okay and so could be the jumps into the

60:36 And so now if that Klansman is an F factor and can conjugate then

60:46 can be transferred. Okay plasma is now transpose on can pop out and

60:56 back into the chromosome of the next . Okay so um uh the and

61:07 that's how it transports are gonna be outside the cell to something else.

61:11 so it kind of piggybacks on Uh But you know is now now

61:18 this new cell. Okay. And um with all these mechanisms these four

61:25 , that's how you know antibiotic resistance gets gets takes hold okay and spread

61:32 the population. Okay. Um Okay let's see what we can match up

61:44 which process. Okay so take a at that. And so with

61:52 Okay virus goes with which let's start this school with the left. So

62:00 , What's going to be part of ? Which which numbers uh did you

62:14 ? Which one? Seven? Okay we're talking about conjugation now,

62:24 six. Yeah. Anything else, . Anything else? Three,

62:38 6 5 and three. So I'll C. For congregation. Okay transformation

62:49 . 1 1. Yeah. Uh go T. F. For

62:57 Anything else? Yeah to to Okay um And anything else? Some

63:14 used more than once. Okay wait get something's not right here. Yeah

63:25 not right bad bad me bad. ? Okay so um yeah somebody said

63:38 , transformation. Let me do this Competence to seven. So we had

63:51 and six six. Okay um Trans . Yeah of course. No

64:02 Okay. Um Anything else? Remember? Some can be used more

64:12 once? Transposition four and Okay, for all these for all these there's

64:31 that can be used for all of . Yeah. Five 55 recombination can

64:39 a part of all of them. , so um many questions,

64:45 Any questions? Okay. Alright, we'll knock off early then. So

64:53 uh see you next week. So week is viruses. Guess what we'll

65:01 about next week? Everybody's favorite
