1Prokaryotic cells contain a cell [blank_start]envelope[blank_end]. It can be one homogenous layer or a complex multilayered structure. It protects the cell against [blank_start]osmotic lysis[blank_end] (when a cell bursts due to movement of H2O into the cell) The osmotic pressure of most prokaryotic cells is extremely [blank_start]high[blank_end] and the strategy is to contain the pressure with a layer external to the inner membrane which resists [blank_start]expansion[blank_end] of cell volume.
Gram -ve bacteria are not stained by the gram stain. Ethanol takes away the [blank_start]outer membrane[blank_end], exposing murein.
Gram +ve bacteria are stained by the gram stain, ethanol removes water, causing murrain layers to collapse and [blank_start]trap[blank_end] stain.- Aenvelope
- Bosmotic lysis
- Chigh
- Dexpansion
- Eouter membrane
- Ftrap
2What

- AGram negative
- BGram positive
3There are 3 common types of envelope in archaea. One is a layer of [blank_start]protein[blank_end]. Methanogens have a rigid wall made of [blank_start]pseudomurein[blank_end], some archaea have walls of complex [blank_start]polysaccharides[blank_end].
The murrain layer is made of N-acetyl-[blank_start]glucosamine[blank_end] and N-acetyl-[blank_start]muramic[blank_end] acid. These join together with a [blank_start]B 1,4[blank_end] glycosidic bond, and joined to each NAM is L and D amino acids.
Transpepidation, catalysed by [blank_start]FtsI[blank_end] involves the 3rd [blank_start]L-lysine[blank_end] of one NAM joining with the 4th [blank_start]D-alanine[blank_end] of another NAM. [blank_start]Alanine[blank_end] is released.
Pseudomurein is similar but:
N-acetyl-[blank_start]talosaminuronic[blank_end] acid, linkages are B 1,[blank_start]3[blank_end], and all side chain amino acids are L.- Aprotein

- HL-lysine
- ID-alanine
- JAlanine
- Ktalosaminuronic
- L3
4In Gram +ve, [blank_start]lipoteichoic[blank_end] acids are linked to the membrane phospholipids. Wall [blank_start]teichoic[blank_end] acids are covalently linked to murein.
In Gram -ve, [blank_start]porin[blank_end] proteins allow solute diffusion across the outer membrane, the Braun lipoprotein connects murein to the outer membrane.- Alipoteichoic
- Bteichoic
- Cporin
5The prokaryotic cytoskeleton is formed from [blank_start]polymeric[blank_end] proteins assembling into filament structures involved in many functions such as cell shape, motility, molecular trafficking in the cell, chromosome segregation.
[blank_start]MreB[blank_end]- maintains [blank_start]wall[blank_end] shape
[blank_start]ParM[blank_end]-separates plasmids before cell division (ACTIN like)
[blank_start]FtsZ[blank_end]-[blank_start]tubulin[blank_end] like protein in bacteria.
[blank_start]storage granules[blank_end]- polymeric nutrient reserves. Glucose polymers form glycogen.
[blank_start]magnetosomes[blank_end]-magnetic minerals which act as cell compasses.
[blank_start]capsule[blank_end]-external layer to envelope made of polysaccharides, acts to avoid phagocytosis and imm system recognition.
[blank_start]Pili[blank_end]-Made of pilin, involved in cell adhesion
[blank_start]Flagella[blank_end]-motility. Made of flagellin.- Apolymeric
- BMreB
- Cwall
- DParM

- Ftubulin
- Gstorage granules
- Hmagnetosomes

- JPili

6Thermophilic archaea live in volcanoes, [blank_start]solfataras[blank_end], hot springs and deep sea vents.
Their strategies for survival include:
-Cell membrane made of a [blank_start]phospholipid monolayer[blank_end] resistant to being torn apart by heat.
-Thermostable proteins with highly [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] cores to increase internal sticking. They also have more [blank_start]salt bridges[blank_end] on their surfaces to keep the protein folded.
-Produce [blank_start]chaperonins[blank_end] to refold denatured proteins
-DNA contains reverse DNA [blank_start]gyrase[blank_end] causing [blank_start]supercoils[blank_end] to increase mp of DNA. Also have DNA binding proteins.- Asolfataras
- Bphospholipid monolayer
- Chydrophobic
- Dsalt bridges
- Echaperonins
- Fgyrase
- Gsupercoils
7Halophilic archaea live in [blank_start]salt[blank_end] lakes, the dead sea and hyperbolic habitats.
-Water flows out of the cell and the cell risks becoming [blank_start]dehydrated[blank_end] and dying, so the cell must increase [blank_start]internal[blank_end] solute conc.
-[blank_start]pumping[blank_end] inorganic [blank_start]ions[blank_end] into the cell from the environment
-synthesising a [blank_start]compatible[blank_end] solute ([blank_start]sugar[blank_end] or alcohol) to adjust water levels.
-pumping in [blank_start]K[blank_end]+
-Highly [blank_start]acidic proteins[blank_end] and a low level of [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] amino acids.- Adehydrated

8[blank_start]Pschrophiles[blank_end] live in Antarctica, icy seas, alpine and polar regions.
Cell membranes contain [blank_start]unsaturated[blank_end] lipids at low temps to maintain fluidity. Have a higher content of [blank_start]non charged[blank_end], [blank_start]polar[blank_end] am acids and a lower content of [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] amino acids. Potentially antifreeze proteins.
