00:02 Yeah, thanks. Ok. Let's, um, let's go and

00:15 started. So, um, let's here. Uh, ok.

00:26 uh, there we go. um, remember that, um,

00:31 week exam, right? So you already signed up on the, on

00:35 , on the CCS class site, ? Not the, not the old

00:39 , right? Uh If you have questions about that, let me

00:42 Um, the, uh, uh, today we're gonna finish at

00:48 and then start into 12 and, , we're gonna get through a decent

00:54 of that. I think we'll get funguses and, um, and,

00:59 , up through algae and then stopped . But, uh, so

01:04 as you know, um, got email if you haven't got the

01:07 um, there's no class Thursday because is gonna be late in the

01:12 obviously and definitely gonna be impacted by going on Thursday, right? If

01:18 don't know football game, all the before and after, right?

01:23 uh, a parking garages are gonna closed here and there and so,

01:28 know, especially, you know, to fourth. That'd be crazy,

01:31 sure. So, um, um, first, so whatever we

01:37 finish today. Video will be Um, and again, it shouldn't

01:43 that much, but, uh, be posted, uh, after

01:47 Actually, I'll post it tomorrow. , uh, um, so we

01:52 the next unit next week. With viruses. And so,

01:59 that, uh, all, all unit three, which is what that

02:03 , all unit three stuff is already on campus. So there's a module

02:07 says unit three stuffs. Ok? it's all there already. Ok.

02:13 including, so we're gonna do 13 week at the beginning of viruses.

02:17 basically it breaks down into part one kind of the, here's what a

02:20 is. Here's how we define Here's the structure of viruses, that

02:26 of stuff. So, uh and I posted the video, it's

02:29 of those flip classes. So I the video today that covers that part

02:34 Part two is kind of the life cycles of the viruses. And

02:38 um, so obviously this stuff is on exam three, not exam

02:44 Ok. Um But uh what what we can do at the start

02:50 , right? Maybe the 1st 15 or so, uh, if you

02:53 any questions or I can recap kind the stuff on the phone on,

02:57 chapter 12. Uh, if you any questions about it, you

03:00 you can certainly go over it So the, so the very,

03:04 know, first part of of next can be some of that. And

03:09 but I'm not uh well before I that. So the other thing is

03:14 so the this is in, I it's a unit, um Forget that

03:20 a unit quiz. Unit two quiz this um Friday it opens. So

03:26 gonna be more comprehensive. So it'll the stuff here in uh in these

03:33 . Ok. So um let's see else The I I can give you

03:38 details on that. Uh uh And send out an email probably tomorrow next

03:43 . So, um but it's gonna like probably 20 something questions, a

03:48 , little bit of stuff from each those chapters. Um What else?

03:53 else? Uh uh So the um , I think that was it,

04:00 there any questions, questions, concerns anything? OK. So um all

04:06 . So what I want to start is kind of a recap of what

04:10 did last time. OK. So All right. So get our heads

04:16 this. Let's um OK. So these mechanisms of horizon transfer,

04:22 You might look at a bacteria and , OK. It's just like a

04:24 machine for the, you know, the number of copies you want and

04:28 all gonna be identical. Well, know that's not true, right?

04:31 we have um mutations that occur that be passed on from a vertical transmission

04:38 being distinguished as a parent to right. So for a bacterium that's

04:42 cell to daughter cells, right? that's one way to transfer genes and

04:46 most are transferred that way. But changes in the nucleotide sequence can

04:52 , those changes will provide variation in population. OK? Um They may

04:58 beneficial. They may not have any at all. Sometimes they're bad.

05:03 nonetheless, it's a mechanism of creating . OK. So we learned uh

05:09 know, kind of um uh these mechanisms are another way to get

05:16 , right? And this is through this isn't, don't think parent to

05:20 , this is like uh OK. the parent cell and here's a bunch

05:24 neighbors around me. OK? And can exchange with them. OK?

05:28 they do it through, through these . Um You know, it doesn't

05:33 what's the most common, you uh I, I'd say probably uh

05:39 the top three over transposition uh is likely is the more common.

05:45 But, you know, these are mechanisms that not only introduce variation,

05:49 know, a s can acquire new . Um uh And, and,

05:55 uh it's also a way in which like virulence factors. We're gonna get

05:59 into the medical side of stuff here . So, valence factors can be

06:03 this way. Um uh Antibiotic resistance can be passed this way. Uh

06:09 common. In fact, uh mechanism how antibiotic resistance is transferred.

06:16 um and so whatever uh the cell up. So I remember just

06:20 very, really quickly. So you that you should be see this name

06:25 transformation conjugation, transduction transposition and know basics of what differentiates each one.

06:32 . So it's it's it's they they of have their own characteristic features.

06:37 uh transformation part, the most basic in a different environment and bringing it

06:42 . OK, conjugation is a little complicated involves more parts, right?

06:47 actually involves cell to cell contact. involves uh this this um a plasma

06:54 has a um so remember plasmids, ? Plasmids are these uh they,

07:00 exist outside the chromosome in the uh much smaller, right? Uh

07:05 kind of do their own thing, copy themselves. Um And uh but

07:10 have, they can have sequences that them able to be transferred through

07:17 OK. And um the uh and among those parts are things like a

07:25 right to connect the cells and transfer um other other uh components in involved

07:31 copying the password and transferring it. , um and so that's gonna be

07:38 much more complicated than transformation, let's . OK. Uh transduction, the

07:42 there is virus, virus is the between, right. So a virus

07:47 a viral infection which we have to about, you talk about that next

07:51 . But viruses uh have to have host. So they live in the

07:55 cell OK. And part of the when they replicate themselves is to uh

08:03 their DNA, uh assemble their proteins into bar particles. But sometimes when

08:08 happens, they accidentally take host DNA of their own and then that gets

08:14 . So this is a way for cell to acquire uh gene or genes

08:19 a previous host. OK. key here, transduction virus.

08:24 Those the two go together and then a little bit different. Um We

08:30 a, a thing called a which is basically a, they used

08:33 call these things uh jumping genes because , they, they basically,

08:38 they mostly just stay in the cell they live in and jump around from

08:45 to spot in a chromosome. But occasionally they can hit your ride

08:51 say a, a plasmid. Or, or maybe AAA viral chromosome

08:57 the viruses that has affected it. we'll talk about that in a little

09:01 . But um but the transposition of course, as part of its

09:06 is a transposon. OK? And that's kind of the key thing

09:11 to link the transposition, transpose the that allows it to be chopped out

09:18 of a of where it's living and elsewhere. Uh So those two things

09:24 and transpose, OK. Transduction virus two cells from the other, right

09:32 uh transformation, grabbing DNA from the . OK. So that distinguishes those

09:36 things. OK. So we're gonna through uh conjugation, what's here.

09:42 . So the other thing I didn't is in all these mechanisms at some

09:49 . OK. It's very likely that , right is gonna be an important

09:55 . So when you think of horizontally um uh a DNA fragment is taken

10:09 , for example, that the bacteria think. So that's that, that's

10:14 dangerous. That could be a virus infecting, right? And so

10:18 one that gets to get rid of , so to make, make that

10:21 more permanent part of the genome, gotta recombine, it has to become

10:26 actual part of the chromosome by recombining it, right? The recount combination

10:30 simply just a G PC, it's complementary base pairing. So there has

10:35 be some level of similarity in here it to be able to become part

10:41 that genome. Um And if it it can it that can happen uh

10:47 circular pieces, they don't, they're necessarily seen always as a danger uh

10:54 bacteria have plasmas. And so this one that can coexist with it out

11:00 . OK. It's a a fragment this wouldn't be able to just live

11:04 here on itself. OK? It have to become part of the genome

11:09 but a plasma can coexist out OK. But we also learned that

11:13 can also recombine, right. So can kind of some of these can

11:16 both. OK. So, um think I touched on all the major

11:21 we're gonna go through uh congregation kind of real quick and we ended

11:25 HFR but any questions by anything so ? So, um so, uh

11:34 look at uh OK. So here's . So let me just show you

11:40 animations, right? These are available you in the, on the Pearson

11:45 . So let me just show one these real quick. OK? So

11:52 all right. So here is so remember this is, this is

11:55 basic F plus F minus conjugation. . So remember the F plus,

12:01 makes it an F plus is it a plasmin and it contains the

12:08 Um uh it has a sequence that the parts to be able to

12:13 let's just call them conjugation genes, ? So it has that in there

12:17 that's what makes it an F right? So they'll mate with a

12:29 that. So an F plus only with an F minus. OK.

12:33 so you see the F minus is lacking this what they call F

12:37 . OK. And so um so we go here, we then

12:45 I just gotta do it like OK. So here we go.

12:48 here's our F factor. So remember the, the F factor contains that

12:53 , the, the conjugation genes, it can contain other stuff as

12:57 OK. So uh one of one of those components is a sex

13:00 , right? So the codes for expresses it, right? And then

13:05 it'll contact an F minus cell and are all specific molecule interactions occurring

13:09 So it's specific for specific molecules on F minus cell. And so then

13:14 want to, you can't, you um carry out the process with them

13:18 far apart. It's too fragile. you gotta bring them close together.

13:21 a more, that's a better stable . What the heck is that?

13:25 on? Hm. OK. So now we come together and so

13:32 what happens then is we're gonna copy F factor and it gets transferred and

13:40 we copy it and now we can this PC FCF plus. Now it

13:45 F minus. Now it's F And so they, it can then

13:49 with a, with an F minus . So that's, that's the kind

13:52 the basic time. And so you what happened, right? It,

13:54 grew hair all of a sudden, ? So apparently that F factor not

13:59 had the conjugation genes on it and the gene for fibri, right?

14:03 that's what those are fibri and it that uh uh by inheriting that

14:10 Now it has, it can but all can express whatever genes are

14:14 it. And in this case, happen to be genes for um

14:18 OK. So that's what I You, you hear f fact and

14:21 go. Ok. Well, it conjugate. Ok. Well, big

14:24 . But, um, when it's passed to another cell, whatever else

14:30 on there, it could be, genes, could be antibiotic resistance gene

14:33 , it could be, um, , uh, gene on it.

14:37 it could be any number of things multiples of things on that class.

14:41 as long as it can conjugate then things go with it and the cell

14:46 inherits it can't express those. So um so that's the basic F

14:52 F minus conjugation transfer of plas. . So let's look at um the

15:02 , OK. So HFR one area there. So each of our

15:13 So you see um OK. So cell has integrated into it, the

15:22 factor. So the plasmids containing the genes have integra loops have integrated themselves

15:30 the chromosome now. OK. So don't see no longer see the little

15:34 here. It's been integrated into the . OK. And so uh but

15:38 , but, but doing that makes whole chromosome now able to be transferred

15:46 conjugation. OK. So kind of of it as being now it's

15:49 it's a huge F factor, The chromosome contains it now, it's

15:54 to, the whole thing can be . All right. So here's an

15:58 minus cell and um very similarly in of, so here's how we get

16:05 H of R formation, right? now um it will, it can

16:12 uh with a F minus. And so the same process occurs.

16:17 just now we're, we're moving the , we're not moving some little.

16:22 . So the same thing, sex brings the cells together and then um

16:28 . So, so we get transfer the chromosome that needs to be

16:33 But you see the whole thing wasn't here, only a part of it

16:37 OK. A good portion of it left behind. OK? Whereas in

16:43 , with the plasma, the whole got transferred, right? Because it's

16:45 smaller. And so, but the F, you see, the

16:49 minus has stayed as an FM. didn't change the F plus.

16:57 There's a reason for that. Um the part that makes it um F

17:04 are those conjugation genes that, that on that the F factor,

17:09 And not all of those or none it was transferred here. OK?

17:13 so now the F minus doesn't have conjugation genes as part of what it

17:19 . So it can't conjugate and, pass this on, but it,

17:23 , it itself can benefit by, know, it can express whatever genes

17:27 inherited from this other cell um and pass it on through vertical gene

17:33 right? Parent child, they can it that way. OK? So

17:36 still a benefit, of course to . OK? And so um

17:43 and so I wanna show real Um uh Let's see. Let me

17:50 here and then uh there we OK. So we just saw this

17:58 the basic F plus plus F minus of plasma. OK. So,

18:04 that's the question we looked at at the end last time,

18:07 So the answer was um integrated in chromosome or we just saw it.

18:12 . And so this mating, Here's our F plus cell. It

18:20 incorporated, the plastic F factor, gets incorporated into the chromosome. We

18:24 an HFR high frequency recombinant. So , if you have a lot of

18:28 in a population like that, they're to, to um recomm uh transfer

18:33 recombine uh what they transferred to an minus cell. Um And so we

18:39 at a mating between those two as just saw in the animation. So

18:43 , I just put this in there to kind of help you visualize why

18:47 F minus stays in F minus OK. So here's our, here's

18:52 chromosome, right? So we have HFR cell. There's the part that

18:57 integrated. OK? Right here, . So that's the, the part

19:02 makes able to conjugate. OK. so uh conjugates with the F minus

19:08 , OK. Here's its chromosome. . And so uh it starts copying

19:13 here. OK? And goes in direction, OK. And so as

19:18 copies, then uh this will be on into the cell, it's conjugating

19:24 right, uh donor recipient, And so how much of this gets

19:30 here is dependent on how far along gone around the chromosome copying it,

19:37 ? And that's a function of how they stick together. OK. So

19:43 connection is rather brief that maybe only little portion of it gets transferred,

19:48 longer than more of it gets right? Um And so you can

19:52 here, all right, this is much was transferred. Uh The X

19:57 , you know, we, when showed that, that means recombination is

19:59 on. OK? But recombination occurring now it can become part of that

20:04 . OK? And so whatever genes on here, it can express,

20:08 , it's now it now has that it didn't have before. OK?

20:13 it stays as an F minus because this never made it into the

20:19 OK? It, they didn't, didn't hang out long enough,

20:23 Connected to be able to transfer because would have to go all the way

20:28 , right? So this is the end that gets copied and to it

20:33 have to stay together for literally probably minutes to two hours, you

20:40 and that's, that just doesn't right? You have to think of

20:44 of, you know, cells that , that are in, in,

20:47 the, in the environment, They're getting bombarded by, you

20:51 other cells knocking into them, uh molecules bouncing off of them.

20:56 So, so it's not a um a quiet environment, right? There's

21:01 of, of a interactions going on can break the connection. So it's

21:05 rarest of rare events that they stay long enough that the entire chromosome is

21:12 that, that just never happens. . It's, it's some, some

21:17 of the chromosome gets transferred but never whole length, they just don't stay

21:20 long enough. OK. And so , uh whatever it inherits it can't

21:26 , right? It has gained new . And so, uh so that's

21:30 nature of these HFR crosses, they result in an F minus becoming an

21:36 plus that um any questions about right? So it's really just about

21:44 kind of the mechanics of it prevent it from the whole chromosome from

21:48 transferred. OK. Um All So this is what we just talked

21:54 . OK. And so you can of see here that the purplish part

21:59 is the conjugation genes and it remains the ancient Far cell but doesn't get

22:04 over to the FM. That's why stays in FM. OK.

22:09 um OK. So I think I all that. Um and that,

22:17 OK, so let's go to Listen, any question, that question

22:21 transduction. Uh So viruses, So uh that's, that's the name

22:27 use to describe AAA virus that infects , right? So, of

22:33 it's viruses that infect our ourselves. call those animal viruses. OK.

22:38 ps are specific to bacteria. And with transduction, the we're looking really

22:43 to generalize or two types, And OK. And so uh as

22:49 learn next week, right? Part the life of this kind of uh

22:56 basically in a nutshell. It's insect , um make lots of, take

23:03 the host, make lots of viruses kill cell. But this is where

23:07 can get sometimes an exception for OK? And so here's the

23:13 phage binds to the host bacterium. genome comes into the cell.

23:19 Part of the process is to kind is to break down the host

23:23 The virus will actually recycle those parts itself and then just take over

23:28 take over the host and, and viruses using it. OK? As

23:33 see here. Now, the thing , so here in, in the

23:38 color, that's the host bacterial DNA the pinkish color. That's the viral

23:45 . OK. So normally what should is only the viral bits are,

23:50 , are, are um inserted there's the word packaged into the viral

23:56 making a new virus. Uh But see here that it mistakenly added some

24:01 the purple host DNA into, into page particle. OK. So now

24:08 is the the entity that can transfer to another cell. OK? And

24:14 essentially what happens. So here's a cell, it's infected, but it's

24:20 , but it's not viral DNA going it. It's DNA from this previous

24:25 going into it. OK. And that's, uh of course, certainly

24:29 this is a single strand coming it better recombined to become part of

24:35 . OK. And that's what you happening here. So, um uh

24:41 inherent and so it can divide and , then, and then it's passed

24:44 throughout the population. OK. But thing here uh is theoretically any gene

24:51 this previous host can end up in new one, right? Because it's

24:56 about because uh all the entire chromosomes chopped up here. And so it

25:01 depends on what piece gets, gets accidentally by the virus into a,

25:06 a viral particle, right? theoretically, any of them can,

25:10 ? That's why almost any gene in previous host can be transferred.

25:16 Now, we don't, there's another , we're not gonna go into any

25:20 about it and it's called specialized OK. This is a mechanism

25:27 that uh unlike generalized or any host can be transferred. It's this is

25:33 restrictive. Only a few genes can passage this way. OK. Um

25:40 without going into details, it has do with the fact that um it's

25:44 different kind of a bacterial virus that this out compared to this one.

25:48 . And so, um but the point is is that um that

25:53 other bacterial virus type actually inserts itself the chromosome and then when it

25:58 it takes a couple of the genes are around it with it. So

26:03 why it's, it's only, it's restrictive compared to generalized. OK.

26:08 only one or two type of transfer way, not theoretically energy, which

26:15 it just, this is, this a difference in how the mechanics haven't

26:18 . That's all which I um so key here, transduction virus,

26:23 Transduction virus is the key. Um questions about that? OK. All

26:30 . So uh OK. So the one of these is transposon.

26:36 So these um um are typically this is a phenomenon. This,

26:43 just occurs in the cell. All . It's not one that is very

26:49 DNA is transferred outside the cell. ? But it can on occasion.

26:54 . And so you're thinking, And, and our, our chromosomes

26:58 these as well. OK. I it's across, it's across the whole

27:02 of life that life has these transposon their, in their chromosome. And

27:08 um so you're thinking, OK, these things jump around their chromosomes,

27:11 must be causing all kinds of Yeah, they could because they can

27:15 themselves in places that are probably not like in the middle of a gene

27:19 something and disrupt it, right? so that can on rare occasion

27:25 But we've got mechanisms to kind of control of this. OK. But

27:31 but nonetheless, uh it's a, a piece of segment of DNA,

27:38 . That has some characteristic parts to . OK. And so OK.

27:52 the transposon transposon uh all have what called these inverted repeat sequences.

27:59 So we just look at say over , right? We have AC TT

28:06 CD GAT and we simply go up this side. It's the same

28:11 it's just reversed what we call OK. And so that's characteristic for

28:17 transposon to have these, what we inverted repeats. So that's one feature

28:22 all have. The other feature is have this thing called a transpose

28:27 That's the scissors that helps it cuts out and then inserts it uh

28:33 OK. So um so all transposon that those two things OK? An

28:45 are like what you see here is we call staggered kind of cuts.

28:50 ? That occur uh on both OK? And that's what kind of

28:54 that, so it's kind of like cut and paste, right? If

28:58 will. And so uh so the simplest of these, what you're seeing

29:02 the screen right now, that's what call an insertion sequence. That's why

29:06 see is one insurgency. That's all is. It's just that OK.

29:11 so a more a complex one which called complex transposon, OK? Has

29:18 elements OK? That the insertion sequence , but it's got other genes in

29:24 with it, OK. So you actually see the and TN is shorthand

29:30 transposon. OK. And so you that uh we have the, actually

29:35 insertion of sequence is on both sides it. So the whole thing we

29:39 a complex uh transpo. So, here we have k resistance type of

29:46 . And um so now uh this one to transfer different genes,

29:52 This, this um this complex OK. And so then the question

29:57 OK, these things typically just reside the cell that has it. And

30:02 do they get transferred? Well, a couple of ways this happens.

30:07 . So they can move uh by plasmid. So here is transposes will

30:13 expressed and they'll cut, right? uh So sticky ends are simply meaning

30:19 , these staggered ends, they're not , they're stagger, that's what sticky

30:24 to. OK. And so they then uh once they're cut, they

30:29 insert themselves in the target DNA. . And become one with it right

30:36 , the thing is what is. here is TN it's transposon. So

30:40 in a chromosome. Now, it jump to a plasma that's in the

30:46 , right? It can jump that . And now that plasma, if

30:51 an F factor, if there's, there's an F plus in there,

30:55 ? It can conjugate and you can it on OK to other cells.

31:00 that's, that's one mechanism OK? could be, and So here's the

31:06 process, right? We're already familiar that, that it gets uh transferred

31:09 another cell. It could be a infects it and the viral genome,

31:15 the transposon jumps into it. And then that is transferred, it's

31:21 a almost like a combination transpo transposition if you will. OK. Uh

31:26 would say this is, this is , is the more common uh mechanism

31:31 using a plan that they hit your on. OK. And uh there's

31:36 few uh antibiotic resistances among bacteria that passed this way. Not a

31:42 but there's, there's, there are that are known to happen this

31:45 OK. Um So with the then it's having the transpo sequence,

31:52 a transposon that has a transpose a it has these inverted repeats. So

31:57 kind of the, the iden identifier it. OK. Um Let's see

32:06 . OK. So let's look at isn't a quicker question. It's kind

32:10 just kind of match these up if can different various features that go with

32:14 one? So uh any questions about transpose on? Yeah. All

32:21 So uh let's look at uh so . So what fits with conjugation?

32:29 . Anybody can shout out anything which ? Conjugation six, of course.

32:40 . 66. Anything else, anything ? There you go uh transformation

32:56 Seven naked DNA competence. Yeah. and seven transduction on, of

33:05 a transposition is gonna be mhm inverted sequences. So when I see matching

33:15 um let's see, I think I three. I got 36271 four.

33:24 . Where does that fit in? Fits in all of them.

33:29 Uh At at some point it can in all of them. Um

33:35 Uh Any questions? I think that's horrible. All right. Um So

33:45 kind of a a 1 80 here . Um, and so pretty

33:52 yeah, I'd say this because we're focus mostly on me, the medically

33:59 ones or ones that cause disease because basically is gonna be the start of

34:03 we're gonna be in the rest of semester. Right? So after this

34:07 , you know, 13, 14 certainly cause many types of disease as

34:12 know. Um, uh, but much everything else from now on next

34:18 and onward is pretty much devoted to medical microbiology. So, um,

34:24 so with, uh, this group figured, ok, well, you

34:29 , the focus of this course is pretty much and viruses. Ok.

34:36 what kind of, what kind of carry out medically important times might you

34:43 um, here in, in a somewhere? Um, so that's kind

34:48 , you know, pretty much the time we talk about Eu Caros in

34:52 quarter. So I said, well, let's just do that.

34:54 . So, well, actually the common types of these infections you'll see

35:01 here will be fungal types, fungal infections. You see the occasional,

35:07 , parasitic type of infection. I mean, um, uh,

35:13 infection by a, well, the thing we're infected by, by the

35:16 , uh, would the algae, toxins, toxins. So, red

35:21 , you know, that's happening gal the coast of Gallus and here and

35:25 , um, uh, affecting So if like to eat, uh

35:30 mussels, that kind of thing. They, they're the ones that uh

35:35 are the, how you get sick eating contaminated of these types of mollusks

35:40 call them. Ok. So, but worldwide certainly parasitic diseases, uh

35:45 involving, you know, uh protozoal . Um uh certainly worldwide, you

35:52 , are very, let's, let's this, let's do this question.

35:56 me pull up um, this Ok. So this relates to

36:06 one of the things we'll talk about . Ok. So if you're diagnosed

36:10 a cutaneous mycosis, you or Yeah. Yeah. Just take your

36:40 shot. No. Hey, I'm predict 99%. Correct. Pretty

37:09 Ok. Um Yeah, my is about fun. The fungi,

37:14 Ok. Um, and talking uh um, you know how it

37:24 us humans. Um, certainly worldwide like malaria, um, very common

37:30 parts of the world. Uh uh sickness, getting bitten by a fly

37:35 that carries the, the, it's protozoal disease. Um, are common

37:41 of these are common, certainly in parts of the world. Uh,

37:45 as much here but, you there's pockets here and there or where

37:48 have this, um, uh, is a fungus that causes meningitis,

37:55 , that there's several causes of meningitis this is the fungal one. Tramon

38:01 a STV. Um, uh, actually it's, it's, it's semi

38:08 here in the States as well. , the, uh intestinal parasites.

38:12 , things like a tape worm. . Uh, are not that common

38:17 . Although tape worms used to be maybe still as a weight loss

38:21 right? I've actually seen a little . It was like a jar.

38:25 , they market it with a fancy , of course, they wanna say

38:28 . But, um, but that's people do take that it, it

38:32 work. I assume I wouldn't want tapeworm in my gut. But

38:36 um, uh those of you that , um, horses, uh other

38:42 , you, you add uh deworming , right? That's to get rid

38:45 these kinds of, of parasites as . Ok. Uh Because of course

38:51 , uh you're feeding, feeding these and the food's going to the

38:55 not to the animal. So, but anyway, so, you

38:58 there's, it's not just humans but a impact on animals for sure.

39:04 So, uh in terms of, uh microorganisms, right? So certainly

39:09 the fungi, uh ease certain moles in the microbe category. Uh proo

39:14 algae microbes all. Uh although algae be multi cellular types, as we'll

39:21 . Um, the, uh, algae generally are not, it's not

39:26 the algae cells that make you It's the toxin they produce.

39:31 And you eat, typically it's the contaminated food uh, that eat the

39:36 and then they produce toxin that makes sick. Ok. Um, the

39:41 arthropods, so, arthropods and the weird name. These are uh helmets

39:48 like worms. So they're multicellular Ok. So they're, they're not

39:54 . Uh But there are like I , tape worms, uh heart

39:58 you know those who have pets, , you protect against that. Um

40:02 other types, um pinworms and things that. Uh arthropods. Now,

40:09 only reason I bring them up here of course, they're an animal,

40:13 sailor, but they're often the mechanism which many of these get transmitted.

40:18 things like TC fly and malaria through , um um ticks and things can

40:24 a very common uh but certain mosquitoes various types transmit many of these.

40:30 And so uh also is, is strictly with um fungi and um

40:39 Uh they can have complex life right? That's not something you see

40:45 a bacteria or viruses but uh involving hosts and things in some cases.

40:49 it can get a little hairy, . Ok. So, um

40:55 uh ok, so we're gonna start fungi and, you know, like

41:00 said, more likely here in the the fungal diseases that aside from viral

41:06 bacterial, you know, fungal these diseases are probably gonna be third

41:11 line to what you see. there's, there's the most, you

41:15 , might say benign types like a foot and, uh, you

41:18 nail fungus and uh kind of skin by various fungi are, are,

41:24 what you see, certain dermatologists right? But um it can be

41:29 serious than that as, as we'll see. So we talk about

41:34 right? So remember, ok, we're talking about today, they're all

41:38 Caros, right? So they're gonna the features that Eu Caros have,

41:42 ? Big bigger cells in the bacteria lots of organ animals and things like

41:46 , right? And so the fungi really um similar similar to us in

41:51 of, of the type of right? So, remember we're

41:55 right? And that's what fungi Uh fungi, of course,

41:59 don't ingest like we do. they typically secrete enzymes, break down

42:06 material then take it in. So kind of more absorption rather than ingestion

42:10 the fungus. Ok. Um They're , of course, they're prevalent in

42:15 soil, right? That's, that's thing is in soil and the they

42:20 and bacteria are the major ones that uh decompose, right? Uh break

42:27 organic material, that organic material. they're also because their thing is being

42:32 the soil, they have evolved many them relationships with plants and so plant

42:39 in the ground, right? And specific fungi that work with them to

42:43 plants take in nutrients and water. we collectively call that uh micro the

42:50 around these plant foods and the interactions fungi in the soil, um food

42:56 . So, um yeast used for of bread and other uh similar

43:02 Uh um also uh things like penicillin other drugs come from this group.

43:09 So they, they definitely have a benefit that way. Now,

43:13 terms of metabolism, they're mostly, , there's one thing. So when

43:18 look at fungi, um there's moles there's yeast. Ok. Um Does

43:27 know the difference between molds and Generally speaking? Right. Have more

43:33 more in a singular cell form, ? Think of them as being more

43:38 like if you will, they're, , they're more in the classic,

43:41 made up of individual cells. That's yeasts are. OK. Molds have

43:46 more of that. Uh the filamentous growth. OK? And we'll break

43:53 down as we go. But um are facultative anaerobes. Think of yeast

43:58 produce beer, they make alcohol, ? Fermentation. Uh moles are generally

44:03 , they have to have air. right. That's how they live.

44:08 sacrifice. That's the word we use describe those that decompose. That's why

44:13 both are asterisks, right? So , decompose that organic material.

44:20 So um the thing about fungi is you cultivate fungi in the lab,

44:26 you you get bacteria out of there growing them on a slightly acidic

44:33 So like ph five ish and that a lot of the bacteria that can't

44:38 that. So fungi grow and they that. Um If you look in

44:43 , in your uh food in your , right? Or pantry, um

44:49 things that get mold on it or like bread, right? So they

44:52 handle like low moisture bread is actually of acidic. So they kind of

44:56 that. Um If you, if had jelly in the fridge, it's

45:00 sitting there for like months, It's not bacteria that contaminated, it's

45:04 fungous on top because jelly is very , right? So hypertonic draws the

45:09 out uh but it's also acidic and fungi and they like that. So

45:15 so they can grow like on a a shower curtain, on your,

45:17 your bathroom wall, right? Places this. Of course, we're,

45:21 we're aware of um uh with the mold, right? That you can

45:25 on your sheet rock in your right? That's a little moisture.

45:30 but uh those things produce toxins that , that can harm you. So

45:34 so that you can have kind you know, nutritional uh rather habitat

45:40 habitats they grow in that that uh necessarily favor bacterium fungi like it.

45:47 . So, um so we talk molds and fleshy fungi. I guess

45:51 way to describe fleshy fungi is that more to it. All right.

45:56 more meat to it, uh to structure of it. OK. And

46:03 , um the body, so the , whether we talk about the body

46:08 a, of a uh of of a fungus or a, um

46:12 a lichen, we'll talk about here a second or even uh some

46:17 multicellular algae that have like a central . That kind of is the,

46:22 the, is the, is the base for it. And that's what

46:25 call a thus. OK. And uh the OK, are uh basically

46:33 , the, the filamentous growth of the mold. OK. And

46:37 the vegetative part. So when you that term vegetative, whether it's in

46:41 context of bacterial cells or whatever type life form, the vegetative form is

46:45 of the active growing form of the . OK. And so uh these

46:52 can fragment. So these, these dots, if you can see them

46:56 here are nuclei, nuclei of the throughout these filaments. And so it

47:03 be have little compartments. So you have divisions between the compartments and that's

47:09 we call sep septum septate hyphy are in little compartments. OK? Sino

47:15 means that's all together, right? no compartmentalization. OK. And So

47:22 , most mold are of this The type, that's the most common

47:27 see. OK. There are a that are like this but by and

47:31 , most during that septate form little . OK? And these can break

47:37 fragment and then they can grow a mycelium. So that's a way for

47:42 thing to grow as well. It's that's what we call fragmentation. Bits

47:45 the end come off and then they grow on their own. OK.

47:52 Now, OK. So vegetative versus my so the vegetative mycelium is the

47:59 that's anchored on the surface. It's throughout the surface. Think of a

48:04 mold, right? The bread you know, there's a part that's

48:07 embedded in the bread on top and , in ingrained in it, then

48:12 kind of like a fuzzy part on , right? The fuzzy part is

48:16 aerial mycelium. OK. So these , this is where like a spores

48:21 form. OK. And so I fungal spores that that's also an how

48:26 you know, you see the weather and so how many mold spores are

48:29 there, right? And they can allergies and things like that. So

48:34 so the vegetative mycelium is in, is on, on and in that

48:39 , right? That's what submerge OK. And aerial my above.

48:43 there's 22 a differentiation there between the . OK. And so here you

48:49 red mold and you see how this embedded into here because the vegetative mycelium

48:55 top, little white fuzzy things That's the aerial MYC, ok?

49:00 a powdery just got powdery kind of to it and feel to it,

49:05 . Um And so kind of a of it shown here. So here

49:10 Aerial MYC on top, that's the powdery stuff here and then uh the

49:16 vegetative mycelium kind of on the surface embedded. And these can be

49:22 OK. Um And that's just a of, of a a sack containing

49:30 bunch of spores. OK. And uh they can be released. So

49:34 , that's your basic mold structure. . And so um the uh uh

49:43 . So reproduction. So being a , of course, they can uh

49:49 through mitosis, right? They can through mitosis, which would be

49:54 OK. And of course, they be, there can be mating types

49:58 with fungi, the male and female referred to as plus minus. I'm

50:03 say the females or the plus male of negatives, right? OK.

50:10 OK. Um And uh and so had that ability, of course,

50:15 ? You can do me meiosis and gametes and make his eye go et

50:19 , but they can do asexuals reproduction , right? So, and so

50:24 having just mentioned the fragmentation phenomenon, ? Let me just go up

50:29 I thought I had a picture here here. Right. So these can

50:35 off and form new, a new mycelium or it can grow from a

50:39 , right? And it can be asexuals where you, you see this

50:43 mitosis, my visions and, and grows that way. Um So,

50:50 and so in terms of spore so whether it's enclosed, you can

50:55 of see how these are kind of free, these stocks are kind of

50:58 free flowing here. Um There's nothing it, whereas here, it's kind

51:02 in a tight bundle, there's actually covering over. That's, that's the

51:06 between Corio spor, not, not in a covering versus Spio sp

51:13 , in a covering. OK. and you know these kind of

51:18 So in actuality for fungi that are important, OK. It's really these

51:28 spores that they look at to help , the uh when you bring,

51:38 these into the lab to identify, kind of only do the asexuals formation

51:46 , they won't even go into the mode. This is kind of what

51:49 do, you know in nature, you can put them in a lab

51:52 throw them on artificial medium, then kind of only do do the asexuals

51:56 formation. And that's why that's why , that's the for clinical identification.

52:02 what they use is they have a in the score forms and things like

52:07 . OK. I don't know why difference is I it's but that's,

52:10 how it is. Um So so, so again, with

52:16 we didn't want that. So let me get out of this.

52:23 . Um So the, the area my, they just talk about that

52:28 a second. So the area of is where spores will form. So

52:31 , that's different from the my, the area of mycelium where the actual

52:36 will form. OK. That's how , that's how they're different from the

52:39 part. OK. So don't memorize cycle. OK. I'm just kind

52:44 show you example, rhizopus is a mold, right? It's your typical

52:48 mold. And uh you know, is a very common fungus. Uh

52:53 see it on, on bread that's on fruits, vegetables, et

52:57 Uh very common one. not necessarily by any means. But uh I

53:04 , I wouldn't want to eat right mold on it, but it's not

53:07 kill you nonetheless. Um So you the two cycles are asexuals and

53:14 Um the so again, the point the aerial hye produces spores.

53:21 This one just happens to be an hence for a right? Um The

53:27 and so this is completely asexuals, divisions, right? So,

53:31 in the sexual mode, how that is you'll have the mating types.

53:37 so if they um uh games right? So games are a product

53:42 meiosis, right? And so if have two different mating types, they

53:46 uh undergo what's called plasmogamy. And all that means is the haploid

53:55 nucleus is entering the cytoplasm of the the recipient. OK. Then in

54:04 stage, more of those nuclei infect respective donor cytoplasm. OK. And

54:12 what the Zygo for is. Then cary part is where the actual,

54:18 plus haploid nucleus and the minus haploid actually come together. OK. That's

54:24 car is forming A I basically And then that's diploid, right?

54:31 haploid when it gets inside the cytoplasm then they finally fuse now you got

54:37 diploid. OK. And then this diploid. Um uh then these produce

54:45 um that diploid entity will then undergo . OK? And you form alo

54:53 that are not that are genetically right? We know meiosis is all

54:57 producing genetically different games, right? so, so of course, this

55:03 what introduces the variation there. Lots variation occurs in the species because of

55:09 . OK. So that's this is nature of of what a mold

55:13 right? Everything up to this point this is how molds operate.

55:17 We haven't gotten the East yet. . Um Any questions about this,

55:23 , you need to memorize these but just if you differentiate between

55:27 area mycelium, all right, versus mycelium, you're pretty much good.

55:33 . Um All right. So uh again, yeast do not grow like

55:43 mold with the and et cetera, much like singular cells. Um And

55:55 you see here where, you they're pretty much producing, you

56:00 even this even cell, OK, much reduced uniform cells. OK.

56:07 budding types, right? Will um a, like a little what they

56:14 a, a protuberance at one end the cell and that will go larger

56:20 it comes off. OK? Like bud. OK. And so uh

56:26 single cell can actually produce like somewhere the neighborhood of 20 to 24 daughter

56:34 through this budding process. OK. And this is, I think

56:41 there can be both, this can be um just mitosis asexuals, but

56:47 even are among yeast. There, can be these plus and minus mating

56:51 as well. So they, they do that too. OK. A

56:54 sexual reproduction I'm saying, OK. Now, among the, just among

57:01 yeasts, OK. So um facultative where they can ferment, right?

57:08 we obviously know we use yeast for production, uh other types like bread

57:14 , things like this. Um And are certain disease causing types we mentioned

57:20 shortly. Um So, diamorphine pathogen in uh pathogens. Uh well,

57:33 have like two forms. And so nature, uh there'll be more of

57:38 a mold like with a high fee et cetera that we just talked

57:42 OK. But when they infect the , OK, they revert to more

57:46 a yeast like growth like you see , the singular cell type form over

57:53 . So you can kind of have types. I think um a a

57:57 human fungal pathogen is uh candida that yeast infections. Uh these they can

58:04 outside the body. It will look of like this when you cultivate it

58:08 the growth medium. But in the is annoying, um it will,

58:13 will assume this kind of yeast form , in the body. OK.

58:19 Now, OK. So here are of the pathogen types. Uh you

58:26 , the cryptococcus uh meningitis. I it's um it's like causes something like

58:34 of the meningitis cases in uh in country are caused by this type.

58:39 saw. Uh II I know you know the CDC Center for Disease

58:44 they put out all kinds, they all kinds of information about uh infectious

58:48 , et cetera. And there's actually outbreak of this in uh in Mexico

58:54 traced to a health care clinic, care clinic. And I forget what

59:00 of Mexico, but a number of have emerged from this. I thought

59:03 was, I thought that, it's kind of strange. But uh

59:07 , so uh Pneumocystis. So most these uh if they don't cause a

59:12 infection, usually your respiratory type of . Inhaling the even inhale the

59:16 they can kind of germinate in your and they uh produce disease. You

59:20 pneumonia types. Uh I'd say candida probably the most common of these uh

59:26 of infections that fungus causes. Um is a respiratory illness, uh infecting

59:33 and the lungs. Uh But then so if you look at so

59:37 remember uh mycosis Myco although I know talked about mycobacterium and mycoplasma before.

59:43 but aside from that, when you my usually related to a fungus,

59:49 . So mycosis are diseases caused by . And so you can have different

59:55 , hold on. Um the uh , right? These are uh on

60:02 skin Subbu under the skin, So say something like um yeast infection

60:08 to other parts of the body. we call systemic um it soys.

60:14 are types that really are cutaneous, inhabit the skin surface or um uh

60:22 , hair on your skin, um , toenails, fingernails, uh they

60:29 have an enzyme to break down the that makes up your toenails,

60:33 a a as well as your Um They're very often cause different types

60:39 dermatitis um which are basically kind of rash things, ok? And fungi

60:47 often a a uh cause of Ok. So nothing that's necessarily

60:53 but more just annoying, right? I actually have one of those two

60:56 always pops up like in when, a cold, cooler months and it's

61:00 like right at the right here with hair and skin need. So that's

61:04 for a fungus. I guess. . Anyway, fortunately there's medication for

61:09 . Um, but, um, , you know, like I

61:13 you know, anthletes food also due a fungus. Ok. Um,

61:19 thing about it is it, you, you, you can,

61:22 can treat them with the antibiotics. , but man, they are,

61:26 takes a while. It could be with it because of their, you

61:30 , I guess because of the of structure and, and how they infect

61:34 the skin and whatnot. And i not easy for antibiotics to penetrate and

61:39 , and they grow slow. So of all that together kind of makes

61:42 you have to be persistent with whatever you're using there. Ok? Um

61:49 , so again, you know, you go through this, you

61:51 don't get in the weeds, Just kind of stay with her.

61:55 . Here are the basic features of fungus and you know, your,

61:59 , your moles and your yeast and , blah, blah. So,

62:01 know, if you just stick to , you know, I'm not gonna

62:03 super detailed here. Ok. But questions. Yeah. So that means

62:12 so typically it, it, that from, it usually results from an

62:17 that begins like in a local part the body but then spreads um and

62:22 obviously it becomes systemic, that's much serious. So it can happen through

62:27 through your blood system, I affecting various organs or whatnot.

62:31 there's different ways. Uh When we to chapter 14, there's a warning

62:35 just full, it's full of full of terms. So you're gonna

62:39 systemic again and I'll use some of terms again. Um So, um

62:47 , so lichen, so likens are much, they're, they're not nothing

62:50 there's, they're not really one that , is a pathogen type.

62:55 But it's interesting because it's kind of , it's a symbiotic relationship between a

63:01 and a algae or santa bacteria. . Now, if you ever walk

63:06 the woods, you've probably seen these right on a tree typically like

63:10 Um These terms here, you you don't need to know, but

63:13 relates to one way you describe a , uh how they look,

63:18 The crust dose is like what you think crusty on the surface,

63:23 Uh Folios, they look kind of a leaf. Ok. Uh Fruit

63:29 kind of like a appendages that are out. So it's kind of how

63:33 one way to identify these types. But there are quite a number of

63:38 , but again, it's, it's relationship between um an allergy,

63:44 Photosynthetic, right? And uh a fungus. Ok. And so the

63:52 of course, provides protection, It's basically covering the allergy, um

63:58 kind of a, a way to them in through these. Um um

64:04 well, these these extensions, the fee kind of help wrap around them

64:08 kind of hold them in. Uh fungus benefits of course through the photosynthetic

64:15 , right? So something like 60% the photosynthetic products, the products made

64:23 photosynthesis is goes to the fungus. the fungus is definitely be benefiting from

64:29 . OK. Um And so these of the projections that kind of hold

64:35 all together, um It has a called the cortex. OK. But

64:42 , the what they both are getting this relationship uh is what is what

64:48 makes it persist. And so where , um you know, you find

64:52 things in various, you know, in the woods and trees and

64:55 you also see them on some of green growth you see on like,

64:58 know, statues, I've seen this the side of the SDL building kind

65:03 a greenish uh that's that is, are likens growing there. Um uh

65:10 terms of, you know, what they provide us or something to look

65:13 is um they used to be used a source of, I think still

65:17 today to some degree the source of , they, they produce these dyes

65:22 um are used in clothing. Um , and also for different chemical chemicals

65:29 products. Um they can, they this ability, I don't know why

65:34 absorb uh cady positively charged ions. able to absorb these and and concentrate

65:42 and so you can use them as way to check air quality,

65:47 You go because obviously they're getting it the air and you know, different

65:51 types that they are, the types ions that they're holding on to or

65:56 , that, that are penetrating them be an indicator of, OK.

66:00 is coming from the air is, is really a good thing or

66:02 right? So you can be a of air quality as well. Uh

66:06 not only just these um with other can also be uh taken in and

66:12 can, can show you uh via, again, a metric for

66:15 quality as well. OK. Because prevalence in nature, that's why

66:21 Um Some do produce antimicrobial products but a lot of them. So,

66:27 you know, the main thing here unique relationship between a fungus, santa

66:31 all OK? Or santa bacteria. . So, um OK. So

66:39 , the allergy we already know are , right? Um They produce oxygen

66:47 a result of their photosynthesis. We that. And so like other Caros

66:52 been talking about today, they can sexually asexuality, they can be mating

66:58 . Um The multicellular types, brown . So kelp um can be

67:06 they can be like 50 100 m in the ocean, right? Super

67:11 , um very common uh red These are types you typically see in

67:17 picture here here's a red allergy And so that, you know,

67:21 can have, you know, certainly plantlike appearance, right? With

67:25 uh in some case, so this structure here kind of the base

67:29 . That's again, we call that a thus we call that kind of

67:33 base structure. OK. That holds all together, there's a green

67:37 So green ally, um in terms evolution, green algae, the ancestors

67:44 green algae were the ones that evolved the plants that we know what we

67:50 . Kingdom plants. Kingdom plan. . Um Radio all typically live at

67:55 can live in the depths of the , of oceans uh or in deeper

68:00 , certainly because uh they absorb so absorb blue light reflects red,

68:07 ? And blue light is actually higher light. So we can penetrate through

68:12 and that's why they can, they uh live in, in deeper waters

68:16 these others can. OK. Um what you get from algae are things

68:22 , well, the that you use certify the plates for lab that comes

68:26 them. Um Things like um if look on a food label, you'll

68:32 them uh things like Carine. Uh these are victors are in foods to

68:39 with the consistency of foods. Ice has it. Um So you get

68:43 from allergy, different types of Um So in terms of more the

68:48 are used too, right? So and diet. Ok. So um

68:55 similar in that they have actually silica , in them. So it kind

68:59 makes them a, a hard Ok. Um And it's from these

69:06 that you form toxins. Ok. this is what affects humans. So

69:11 not, not ingesting these, it's the animals in the food chain that

69:17 eaten them and then we eat So like a uh so what happens

69:21 remember, you know, your food , um if you go up up

69:26 chain, right, in terms of of species, right? The bottom

69:31 is lots, lots of them, ? You progressively go up to fewer

69:35 fewer, right? And you go bottom to top, right? And

69:39 as you do, you can right? So you have these serve

69:43 a food source. OK? And things like uh clams and mussels and

69:49 eat them and they can get, can get concentrated in these, in

69:53 , in these sources. So then eat them and then we come down

69:56 the sickness, right? So a called Saxo to this is the one

70:01 is due to the um and the tide. So off of off the

70:06 of Galveston, that's happened a few . So things like uh Mussels

70:10 I think oysters may be affected by . So if there's been a red

70:15 uh occurrence, you don't wanna, should, you shouldn't be harvesting,

70:21 the shellfish in those waters. because obviously they can potentially be,

70:26 you sick. Uh Sliter to, found in concentrations of fish.

70:32 again, uh another type of dinoflagellate these and diatoms. Um, as

70:39 have a toxin they produce. again, these all happen to concentrate

70:45 things like clams, mussels, those of mollusks. Ok. And of

70:50 , we eat them, we get . Ok. So again,

70:53 it's not getting sick from ingest us these things. It's getting sick from

70:59 the toxin. Ok. So a bit different. And so of

71:03 it's not gonna be, it's not , right? It's not like floating

71:07 the air and you catch it. it's gonna be strictly like a

71:11 it's not passed that way at It just from ingesting contaminated food.

71:17 . So, um the, the thing I'm gonna say, which we

71:21 talked about, we talked about earlier chapter 27 right? These album

71:25 That's how these toxins can really have effect when the algae that produced them

71:31 up in numbers, right? We know this process before, right?

71:35 so, uh and it's happened in Gulf and so that's how you get

71:40 of these toxins produced, right? . Folks. Uh we'll end it

71:45 and so no class Thursday, I'll a video tomorrow to finish up the

71:49 of this and we can go over , any next Tuesday, we can

71:54 over if you have any questions. . Um,
