00:27 Tester. Oh, there we Hello folks, everybody doing in

00:33 Um so if this is day one you and you don't know me from

00:41 . Um You can, you may , you may not yet have access

00:46 blackboard. You don't take a day most maybe two. if you want

00:53 copy of the Syllabus, just email , I can shoot that to

00:58 Um Let's see of course the, you are in here and you're not

01:04 , you can enroll. There's it's it's open. Okay. Unlike the

01:08 , we've got two sections of this in the spring, so there's plenty

01:13 room. It's never that both sections filled up. So uh speaking of

01:19 , um If you are in the o'clock class, okay, I'm not

01:27 to stop you from coming to 11 class, but the only issue is

01:30 quicker. Okay, you know, you're at four o'clock class, if

01:34 using a quicker in here is not work. Okay? So that's the

01:38 thing. So vice versa if you're to a four o'clock class and then

01:42 , you know that the clippers are going to be compatible there.

01:46 So you won't get the clicker. , but you know, even if

01:52 miss the 11 30 class, you always just watch the report electric,

01:56 so just just be aware of Okay, uh so speaking of

02:02 the, so again, it's just practice. Right? And we're not

02:06 , I am posting the points. ? Only for the reason that you

02:12 be satisfied. That yeah, these are my clipper class and I've

02:15 my points and that's good so that's sole reason for posting the points.

02:20 ? So once you get to 26 I'm basically gonna delete yes today's and

02:29 Tuesday's points and then we just Okay? So um anyway so yeah

02:34 you need to do now when you your clicker and I refresh I um

02:40 upload the points uh after class and I refresh the system. And so

02:46 you're not seeing your points yet you once I refresh the system.

02:50 If you if you have a registered click with a subscription. Alright once

02:59 refresh the system then well you'll see points. Uh So obviously if you're

03:05 if you if you do have a clicker and you're using the clicker and

03:10 not seeing points and certainly need to that. Okay? And click our

03:15 stuff is all in the syllabus there's office behind the library S.

03:21 I. T. They help with things quicker and stuff. Okay?

03:26 if you need assistance. Okay any before we start? Okay so we're

03:34 start kind of slow so I know been on on break right? The

03:39 brain wheels are still kind of have breathe those and get those going

03:43 Right so we can get into the subjects you're taking. So we're gonna

03:48 kind of basic? Okay But even may not be basically everybody.

03:55 what's basic to me is that it not be basic to you,

03:58 But as a microbiologist as we all now. Okay. Um we got

04:05 start with some certain things, Certain things you should know.

04:09 So a lot of it will be number of clipper questions. Okay,

04:14 remember uh section I. D. , so we're gonna put that into

04:19 uh okay so um so we'll see the beginning of every any of all

04:30 notes, there's like this and I've of condensed some of the things we're

04:33 see, they are pretty much the flipped a couple of things. Um

04:38 a big deal, but the you always see at the beginning these list

04:41 objectives. Right? So it kind use that as a, you

04:46 what am I supposed to get out this chapter? Well then look at

04:49 learning objectives. That's kind of what should know, right? That's kind

04:56 how it would use that list. , so what we're doing today is

05:02 kind of the start of we're gonna one is gonna be over a couple

05:06 days. So we'll finish up on next Tuesday. So uh so today

05:14 more kind of like introduction. Here's microbes are. Here's what they are

05:19 are some kind of gray areas in of definition defined online credit course and

05:25 taxonomy in kind of the basics I should say, I didn't say

05:32 last time, but I had like overview of the course. I had

05:35 four units right, recover um that this course is heavily skewed toward pro

05:45 and viruses. So uh 85% 90% , 9% viruses, 1% carriers.

05:55 and all the other courses you That's what you look at our eukaryotic

06:00 . Right? So this is really of your only exposure to. What's

06:06 pro periodic world about? Okay, , so that's the approach I

06:10 Okay, I find more interesting. , way back when um uh I

06:18 at materials to go, okay, , they're way more complicated. They

06:21 all that my Asus and mitosis I don't want to do that.

06:25 I went to prepare. Okay. , little did I know that there

06:29 all relative in terms of complexity, ? That can be just as complex

06:32 on in different ways. Okay. , so and the other thing I'll

06:37 before we start if there's anything to away from this course because we all

06:43 in terms of microbes is nothing but . That's what shows up on the

06:46 . Right? All the bad Right. Those are like a drop

06:50 the bucket compared to the vast majority in fact we need we need appropriate

06:57 for our to live. Right? we'll see how that is true.

07:02 when we get into Tuesday. So start with something. Yeah kind of

07:07 , easy. So unlike other, you know um fine slash represented by

07:20 chosen one thing remind us that would two way but we're gonna get this

07:26 . So what is the thing that it? Yeah that's the field

07:30 If I see this, I don't it like this to astronomy. What's

07:37 thing in microbiology? You go microscopes microscopes, right. I forgot

07:49 bring my uh microscope ahead when I uh 13. I still got

08:02 I was one of those, one those people way and it was gonna

08:16 that astronomy was also had a So looking at you know inner

08:22 So um so obviously I chose didn't astronomy particularly when I found out how

08:28 math involved. So I said So anyway uh so obviously one of

08:37 things that's that's what any kind of society has a microscope and a little

08:45 you know mostly things like you know , you're used to see labs and

08:52 . Uh this late or not on far left is the one that really

08:57 it. Right? That's look right yes that is a microscope might not

09:02 so you can actually get um upwards I think 300 X. 400

09:08 Which is incredible. Right? And the lens is actually right? That

09:15 there and a little tip of the is where you put your little drop

09:18 drop, you look through. And he was apparently this Savant this rain

09:25 of grinding lenses which apparently is that you get very secretive about it.

09:34 ? And tell a lot of people he did it. But you can

09:37 these spectacular pictures. And he was first to see bacteria. Okay.

09:42 anyway so of course advances in microbiology in terms of the types of organisms

09:49 to see and particularly having are different each other came of course with improvements

09:54 the microscope. Okay so you see know from the 18th this is in

09:58 17 hundreds here. Doesn't look that different from the 18 hundreds of

10:03 Now you see the later 18 hundreds see kind of the binocular type here

10:08 . And then of course the modern pretty much look like they do and

10:11 have been for the last 50 plus . But then of course the Electron

10:18 right? Major advance that was like the 1930s. Okay so uh that

10:24 a real game changer in terms of really see ultra structure and cells and

10:28 they really are different. Okay so so yeah certainly the advances in microscope

10:34 what kind of influence what we saw the taxonomy and classification and discovery of

10:39 etcetera. So um and so this one side I kind of moved up

10:45 the queue because it kind of fits that. All right. And so

10:49 course microbes and you know mostly unknowingly until until probably the uh century uh

11:01 are doing stuff for us that we know what we're doing right through wine

11:04 beer production and other food productions and like that for centuries. Right?

11:10 Obviously the bad guys, Right. again are few and far too few

11:14 far between. But are these are the minority, Right? In terms

11:21 plague devastating, killing millions flew as . So for covid. Right.

11:29 no doubt that they've they've had a influence. Certainly. So but they

11:34 the mob, right? Microbes are model for what we know about the

11:40 of life, how D. A replicates and how broken sentences works

11:45 all these kind of basic processes we of probably take for granted now were

11:50 discovered using bacteria viruses as it's very to work with bacteria to grow

11:57 study them, etcetera. Okay. of course as we get now to

12:02 and exporting them for various purposes. , so um so you know

12:09 let me have a microphone. So often called the father of microbiology.

12:15 And uh just one thing here about . Hook gets credit for being the

12:21 to use a microscope, but what did was basically used it as a

12:27 a mechanism to view all different types tissues plans. Uh bugs etcetera,

12:34 looking at macroscopic lives and single Okay, that was that actually looked

12:41 discovered micro bacteria, et cetera. . So. Alright, so here's

12:50 of a little factoids, factoids about micro so one of these things

12:58 Is it true? Uh Let's So go ahead and take a shot

13:03 . Okay, clicker practice. Um me uh At the timer on

13:10 We've got 30 seconds here. So of these are false? If there

13:16 a false. Okay, stop the briefly, catch up check. Let's

13:49 create. Okay. So um answered so why'd you answer a means basically

14:07 they're found everywhere? Okay, so not restricted to certain areas. Here's

14:12 you'll find them here is where you them. They're everywhere. While you

14:17 um you know Yellowstone Park, Guys, there's bacteria living in this

14:23 water, a handful of soil. gonna um uh you Millions 10 times

14:37 want in your own cells. Uh environment. Right. Cold

14:43 You find on the ice, icy just just below the water are photosynthetic

14:51 . So uh you do you find literally everywhere in fact. And so

14:57 false. That's false. So ubiquitous as you said, found everywhere.

15:03 . Not just restricted areas here and . Okay so the marine microbes.

15:10 5% of the to your things like cyanobacteria. We'll talk about those um

15:20 makes up the other 90 plus percent the o to the source of

15:26 That's amazing that microbe plants that plant microsecond 9%. This is the nitrogen

15:36 . So very what you see here the here very that's one of the

15:42 why is why we need bacteria to own existence. Because that cycle provides

15:49 of nitrogen to plants. And remember are we are maybe a strict,

15:56 vegan, I don't eat meat. ? So that's obvious. Then we

16:00 on plants. If you're vegan plants food. Okay? And plants need

16:05 everything you need nitrogen, they can't it themselves. So you have to

16:08 it from the soil. And bacteria instrumental in providing that. Um But

16:13 you are a meat eater and you eat plants ever, okay, You

16:18 rely on because the things that you the cows and the others they eat

16:24 . Right? And so they're indirectly still rely on. Okay. So

16:29 quick. And we'll talk about National a couple of times. So,

16:35 and then the the yeah, there's there are many more species out there

16:43 we are aware of, right? I think we've cataloged something like maybe

16:47 to 4000 different precarious species, but many out there, we'll talk about

16:54 that is okay. But there are to still find. Okay. As

16:58 see. All right. So, of some of course this this life

17:02 other planets life on MARS. We like to perk arrows because MARS

17:08 an extreme environment obviously. Right. we can find precarious in extreme environments

17:13 earth almost mars life. Right. , that's why we expect life on

17:18 to be microbial about the precarious because would have metabolisms that would enable them

17:25 live on MARS. So, um , the Alright, so next

17:31 So, I looked at this If you have questions, feel free

17:35 talk about it, it's fine. , this one we get kind of

17:39 the definition of microbes. So which would you consider? A micro

17:44 Picture. A C for a Okay, let's go forward 130 or

18:36 . Okay, so, we got se uh h Okay, um mm

18:51 . Right. Um answered a Why you say? Hey? So,

19:07 think you're saying none of the other are considered micro. Right.

19:11 why would you think that the onion ? Yeah, I mean, it's

19:21 of a larger. All right. , you say is the correct

19:28 Okay. It is viruses are My approach. Right. Um You

19:37 not think so, but generally they Okay. The math of green algae

19:42 the matter. Green allergy. The bacterial colonies. Um Yes. Individual

19:49 make up that mat. Make up colony, but the colony itself is

19:55 a microbe. The math of growth not a micro um So many skin

20:02 . Okay. Uh your your muscle your tissue. Right? So cells

20:10 that are part of a tissue or organ or microbes. So micro micro

20:16 organisms that can live on their own and reproduce and uh eat food and

20:24 etcetera. Okay. And so there's specific categories okay. That we'll look

20:31 um the D. And E. . Is what's called a water

20:37 For sure. Uh These are called animals. Okay. Microbes, dust

20:46 also in the same category as a animal. Okay. So um we'll

20:52 on this here as we go Okay now, but just said a

20:57 organisms that live in their own reproduce . It's kind of what we call

21:02 viruses don't really fit that. But they are the hallmark. Is

21:07 it take a microscope to see That's really the definition of a

21:11 Okay, so let's look at this . Okay. Kind of front.

21:20 Alright. So let's look at So microscopic observation of the microbe is

21:25 it has is oval shaped the dimensions 25 by 20 nanometers. Okay.

21:33 has no discernible organelles. This is likely a slash. And okay,

22:16 catch up. All right, let go for five seconds for the all

22:25 . Okay. If you answered who B. Why wild guess was

22:41 So so so in males answer Yeah. Why? Yeah. So

22:50 the so a what's the cut off a virus and a bacterium about a

22:58 . Okay. Micro so it is . So virus is going to be

23:02 you typically nanometer scale is gonna be . Okay. Uh and there is

23:06 range of viral sizes as well. is actually the lower 25 nanometers.

23:11 about the rabies virus is about that . Uh, biggest over micron.

23:18 a few giant viruses, but most the viruses are kind of in the

23:23 to 900 nanometer scale. Ebola virus a big that's about almost almost.

23:30 but certainly uh look at the size here. Okay. Um, the

23:39 here it's this is one of It's basic. It's one of the

23:43 you should have a four size is everything. Not everything will fit in

23:48 boxes in terms of science raises. most thing to do according to what

23:52 see here. Okay, so micron the kind of buy into viruses and

23:59 . But again, like most things biology, there's always exceptions here.

24:05 . Um, so microbes, you , maybe 20 or so. So

24:14 , so we're talking about definitely requires microscope could be seen should be perfectly

24:19 . Right? That's that's what typically, but after risk viruses don't

24:25 fit that mold. But we still them microbes. Um, they can

24:30 different arrangements. So like they're familiar things like staphylococcus streptococcus. Uh and

24:39 have different kinds of shapes and Okay. Um, And it can

24:45 in pairs or singles or what have . Okay. Um But they are

24:50 to they are going to fit that ranges. Okay. So um the

24:59 you have theoretically could you have a that say is like Oh I don't

25:06 one nanom in size. Did you micro does that small? Who says

25:16 ? Why do you say that? , here's here's the here's the cut

25:25 . Right. There's one nanometer right . Right. Or you can have

25:31 things in it but you're probably not be able to fit in chromosome inside

25:35 thing. Right? That's why viruses small and like they have to rely

25:40 the host, the host for things they can't fit it with. So

25:46 like just a little protein sack with small genome. That's it. So

25:51 size restriction you know because the molecules make up life not everything can fit

25:56 something That's so so generally the you're by that. Okay. Alright.

26:03 question. Right. So after this here a little bit of a

26:06 All right. So uh so which ? This is kind of about types

26:12 microbes and what people and how we . Okay. So so again,

26:21 . Um my microscope. Um generally are committed on their own. Not

26:28 of the tissue. Uh They uh viruses can also fit that definition as

26:35 . Uh the electron microscope to see . But then you have different microbe

26:41 viruses of course. And you have eukaryotic representatives. Different procreative representatives.

26:47 so you should have a little bit that. Okay. All right.

26:57 reason I put this in there was got the terms that it's best to

27:03 pounding into your head. Now by time we get to unit two you'll

27:09 it colder. Alright. Hopefully. right. Alright. Let's see.

27:32 . All right. So B. . G. Seem to be the

27:36 here. Okay. Okay. So is G. Is correct okay to

27:46 voters and uh so the two correct are what what B. Is one

27:59 the other one is UCF yep. F. So um so this term

28:08 trove. The other ones. Okay. You're gonna see a lot

28:12 that. Um Especially when the unit but even in on Tuesday we start

28:19 about ecology, ecology. They're going out. It's so basic. Why

28:24 you telling me? Trust me. . I will be people at the

28:29 of semester that film had that figured . Okay. Um The type of

28:36 one Eats is what that term is about. Okay. If you eat

28:41 . 02, you're not a choice what C. 02 organisms that

28:51 Yeah. Or Are expected to know one or our little troughs.

28:59 We'll talk about that term on Uh But if you are that's what

29:07 are you have to preform organic materials organic materials. Okay yeah Sio two

29:14 organic material obviously but it's the most form. All right. You can't

29:19 C. 02 and break it apart get energy from you can only build

29:25 ceo to build up so to do more contact. Okay. That's a

29:33 . Yes. Plan plan can remember night. Right? Plants can can

29:40 like a gin and then use that to start and then use that causes

29:44 so inspiration would write also in Do do that. So yes absolutely

29:51 just plants. There's others too. very fundamental metabolisms. So just trust

29:58 it's only the last time you hear . Okay. Uh Anyway um So

30:06 bacteria are both and and that the features. Uh you carry it.

30:17 the group's bacteria domains. Okay. taxonomic grouping is the biggest. Okay

30:27 You are have similarities in common that not shared with bacteria. So there's

30:34 that was discovered uh in the 70s there were these three groups now.

30:39 not that there were actually two groups precarious. We didn't know that until

30:43 . And we'll talk about that here a second. Okay um so uh

30:50 see any questions about anything on this . Well I'll go through some of

30:54 groups again here in a second. fact right now. Okay so who

30:59 microbes? So representative types. Right have microbes across the kingdoms uh and

31:12 kingdom kingdom bacteria. Okay. Um the uh here. Okay so we

31:23 into the sailor types of the Okay. Sailor type sponge I accuse

31:30 bacteria. Okay. Um algae zones the carriers are. So I think

31:43 characteristics the most basic type nucleus and and uh they can read multiple

31:51 right? That can be deployed. And beyond your plant. The sexual

31:58 is a part of being a you itself. Essential future. I think

32:03 probably all know. And so pro have um their features of course chiefly

32:11 lack of a nucleus. Right? then you have you don't really have

32:14 although they can form what we call types of inclusions particles. Um not

32:22 by lipid uh the structure surrounded by membrane which is where the But they

32:30 have like protein bound structures and So then they can have structures but

32:35 not really called. Okay. But uh you know having a generally or

32:44 um small and of course they will now there are some as we go

32:53 the semester there's gonna be some variations this uh there's material types that can

32:58 in those spores. And so we'll what that's about and biofilms and things

33:02 that. Okay. But for generally all troop carriers have certainly diverse

33:09 Right? They can you're familiar with palaces. Right? And self exploration

33:16 bacteria archaea can do a bunch more just that. Okay. Um so

33:22 can literally literally eat rocks as their their energy source. Okay. And

33:27 of course can't do that. And one of the things that that classifies

33:32 archaea are there they're not restricted to you do find them in modern conditions

33:40 maybe you do find it seems like extreme conditions of temperature ph uh solidity

33:48 . Okay. And so as mentioned a serotype. So not just

33:53 There's a couple of types we'll talk later called viral roids. And Priam's

33:59 . And so viruses and prions are of RNA. A well excuse

34:05 viral RNA only only a that's That's all they are. Okay.

34:12 just a protein. That's it. so viruses are a little bit step

34:18 that. If you will we don't a capture that's called protein coat surrounding

34:25 genome and other material. Okay so are the basics of who who they

34:31 . Okay, so if you think they're gonna be in one of these

34:35 . Okay. Now um so Archaea can loosely group groups Okay. With

34:48 engine from a file. So these to um profile. Temperature temperature tolerant

34:58 . Right? Or assault loving methodologies make methane. Okay, profiles.

35:06 by definition typically when that grows above but your archaea can step it up

35:11 notch. So 70 hyper thunder fires grease or above. It can be

35:18 above. So that's hot. That's your boiling water almost.

35:22 Um Arabic Arabic they can live without auction. Lots of sulfur metabolisms are

35:29 this group. We'll talk about that . So don't worry so much about

35:33 . But methane, the um number methane producers on earth or what I

35:41 they're the ones that do it. it's actually found in this animal

35:46 We got all the cows on planet . So they are they're all full

35:51 these archaea that can produce methane. And so my thing is actually greenhouse

35:57 even more potent. Um So anything some cross kind of future between their

36:09 combine some of these futures. You find this among the archaea and

36:15 halo files are salty. So there's on earth, Red sea uh salt

36:21 that are naturally high insulated. That's you often find these are even higher

36:27 of New York. 30% salt. um companies that manufacture salt will

36:34 So using uh an ocean have shallow and wild evacuated will find these bacteria

36:44 there. They also have a unique photo sentence is very different from a

36:50 , a plant analogy does it. we'll talk about that later as

36:54 Um interestingly the one thing you don't in our our human pathogens. There's

37:04 diseases that I know of. You have to have them in your body

37:10 well. Okay. But none today been shown to cause disease bacteria,

37:17 and certain cortisone. Okay. Of viruses. I think we know the

37:21 of a virus by now. Uh requirements will devote time to virus

37:30 in chapter six. So for now know that you know they are not

37:35 settled because they can't they don't have don't have to sell properties of being

37:40 by themselves and et cetera. So require host. Okay, so they're

37:49 basically for that reason. Okay. Alright so micro definition. No as

38:00 said in biology there's always gonna be gray areas. Right? It doesn't

38:05 that the core definition is incorrect. just means you have to account for

38:10 of these things. Okay, so sized cells. All right, so

38:14 title margarita um Magnifico. My wife that name margaritas. So okay.

38:25 so so uh margarita is the one here that long. Okay. Making

38:37 um bubble allergy which form gasses inside make this very large. Because allergy

38:45 course is typically you know in the 59 micrometer range. This is like

38:51 centimeters. Right? So when it's up with gas um The and I'll

38:58 let me let me just show you quickly. Not. You don't even

39:00 this but this is I just put in here because of an idea of

39:04 this big cell is all about. one set very long. So to

39:11 able to accommodate the needs of that . Uh what they call all throughout

39:22 cell where they have protein synthesis. compartments for their because you have to

39:30 the needs of the whole cell. have just one area up here where

39:34 synthesis remember molecules get to where the itself simply through diffusion you if you

39:41 a super long cell like that, future may not work well enough to

39:46 molecules going where they're going to sell do stuff. All right. So

39:50 , what you do synthesis? And then this is typically filled

40:01 This whole area is filled up with . So nitrate the N.

40:07 Okay. And so what it it can use hydrogen sulfide for

40:15 and produce elemental sulfur. And that's sulfur Granules. Okay, so it's

40:20 of a byproduct of metabolism. And like I said, don't don't worry

40:25 much about this. Now, this just for informational purposes. So E

40:28 . C electron transport chain. so we can oxidize hydrogen sulfide,

40:34 energy from that, Right? And then breathe using N 03. Or

40:40 does to nitrite. Okay. And this completes the selected our system.

40:47 ? We have we'll have like a source of glucose, right? Oxidize

40:52 . Right? And then those electrons go down to like transport chain and

40:56 we'll we'll oxygen which gets reduced to and that's how we work aerobic

41:02 And this is a form of anaerobic . Just using instead of oxygen uses

41:07 . Okay. And so, by the respiration cycle here, reform energy

41:14 get a tps from this. 80 peace. It will.

41:22 And that's the whole if you that's fine. But, you

41:26 the whole proton pumping and that in month. But but it does it

41:36 not actually like nitrate. And it this whole thing come up with a

41:41 source that you can use. he uses this in times when it

41:44 be is starved. Maybe there's not light around or something that has the

41:50 of it you can use to produce . Okay, so, again,

41:55 long cells. Okay, so, , let's go back to here.

41:59 , microbial community. So, super cells, microbial community. So,

42:04 course, are made up of individual . Right? When you put them

42:10 , then it can become visible to naked eye. Okay. But if

42:13 quality of play or biofilm represents a amount of growth. Okay. Uh

42:20 one thing about biofilms is biofilms require surface biofilms are all about surface,

42:29 it's a pipe or a exceptional water it could be a bathroom, a

42:39 shower herb. All right. These all areas where Because it's all about

42:44 surface. Okay, um micro animals that already. So, these are

42:49 microbes because they are multi cellular Right? They're just super tiny.

42:59 Now. Okay so we talked about and define them uh size ranges,

43:09 . Okay. Kind of some of gray areas Now it's um how do

43:15 classify these? Because that's when things do is to classify stuff classified

43:20 Right. And so uh so as mentioned earlier the word might fit in

43:28 the different compartments of taxonomy. It's related to advances in the microscope.

43:35 ? And then you know a little later 19 fifties sixties when we discovered

43:43 . N. A. And the of working with Vienna and using DNA

43:46 a texting on a tool among other to compare organisms. Right. So

43:51 plus advances in my cross have changed we categorized um microbes. Okay and

44:00 of course the hallmark is to to nowadays is to first um do

44:06 D. N. A compare database see if you got something new?

44:13 something very similar whatever. But you you do combine that with morphology which

44:20 what does it look like The shape size and what are some of the

44:25 features. So you can use both those. Okay. But you always

44:29 a part of that. If you all kinds of resources are is to

44:33 that that comparison to DNA. Because gives you uh so think of each

44:40 base as a point of comparison. so you have 10,000 bases. That's

44:46 points of comparison. So that for reason it's really the standard. But

44:50 do combine some of these other pathology metabolism and things like that too.

44:56 anyway, so way back when if remember from intro bio, uh what's

45:01 name? Right. The father of , right. But everything in either

45:07 or plant, right. We're talking hundreds I think. So, whatever

45:11 form you were either an animal or time, depending on what your future

45:17 , all based on visual observation. . Okay. And so of course

45:23 , no different microbes had like maybe like characteristics put them on a

45:27 They didn't put them in the Okay. But then um uh and

45:33 analogy were at war at that Put in the plant group.

45:39 so I think they thought fungi looked looked like root root system or something

45:43 that. Which is why they put in the plant kingdom. But

45:46 so microbes were strewn about in both these kingdoms. They finally were put

45:51 what's called kingdom Pro Teesta. this is Heckel in 18 66 again

45:57 to microscopy, right? Advances in microscope. And so anything that was

46:04 of a microbe was put into that of Pro Teesta of course that contain

46:13 pro periodic and eukaryotic microbes in that to initially. Okay then later um

46:22 pro carriers were taken out of, it to me and that kingdom I

46:32 that that was as far as we when I was learning microbiology.

46:36 because of how old I am. , so that's where it ended.

46:40 Manero? Manero was still a thing I was starting this. Okay,

46:45 al were kept in as they still . And then um fungi of course

46:52 like in the 60s until the 60s they figured out, okay, fungi

46:56 most are their own thing, They're not plants. If anything,

47:01 are more similar to us and they plants because they're a trophic have the

47:10 um now and particularly instrumental here was the uh development like because now you

47:21 really see cell and see some. , so that's how you get the

47:29 here between features. And then uh type in. Okay, so um

47:42 then and this lasted for through the eighties. Okay. And then uh

47:50 the mid seventies was when we had discovery of archaea bacteria, this is

47:55 Rose and our own fox. He's our biochemistry department. He was a

48:03 student with him at this time and both kind of discovered this this group

48:08 bacteria. So um so in Manera have been both bacteria and archaea but

48:15 didn't know that is a type of was until they actually saw there was

48:20 difference. Okay, so this all on looking at in particular DNA

48:29 Okay, so when you're doing comparisons organism. So you could sequence the

48:39 genome and compare that. But that's a practical standpoint. Not usually

48:43 Okay. But so they picked a segment, that courage for the 16

48:53 . RNA. So all the S of genes is a measure of

48:57 I figured you have a big s , bigger molecules, smaller S number

49:03 dancers, Svedberg units. Okay. and so you know, a pro

49:08 rise, only UK act is made two sub units are large and

49:12 They just have different RNA is each . Okay, so the small subunit

49:18 S. Large five and 23. of course, just remember the so

49:27 you have uh by picking that molecule there picking a molecule and using it

49:35 compare across all living things initially in preparing groups. But it's a way

49:42 uh delves deeper back in history if will in terms of looking at similarities

49:50 between life. Okay, Because tribalism something once it evolved is not something

49:57 gonna handle a lot of mutation Right? Because that that is critical

50:03 life, Right? You can't make forget about it. Okay, so

50:08 not gonna sustain a lot of changes time for that reason. So that

50:14 that's a way to kind of look back in time between relationships between

50:19 they evolved in the date diverge. ? So so by picking this

50:26 So here you see an example of Drawing obviously bacterial 16 here. I

50:34 to see secondary structure, a secondary looking here. Um also the

50:44 those are basically the spots they look . Those are the spots that evolve

50:49 you'll see more changes occurring because changes the spots will not alternative function of

50:57 rise of itself. Right. So are areas that probably changed more

51:02 Uh and that's what they look at . Okay. Um and so they

51:09 appropriate to go, wow, there's two different types here. Right?

51:14 the bacteria and this group are calling ? There definitely make no mistake.

51:20 lack of movies. They have that feature. But then they said,

51:25 there's actually some similarities to eukaryotes that don't have. Okay, so it

51:33 anything in science when something is it doesn't mean like the next

51:38 Oh we adopted it. Let's Okay, so like I said mid

51:44 , early eighties when I was studying , it was still one era took

51:47 while for domain to become accepted. nonetheless it did. And so now

51:52 have uh so in terms of your with kingdom violent family, genus

52:03 you know that you've seen that So now there's one above that

52:08 Okay. Domain is the largest. so, okay, um so two

52:19 are preparing this in one group. um so here you see the three

52:25 , the uh we're in the area This is really just highlighting the mostly

52:31 microbes in these three groups but uh similarities difference. So are Kiev and

52:40 of bacteria. We mentioned these already we have the with defined those

52:48 Um Right. They have particularly in informational molecules like protein synthesis uh

52:59 Okay, there are similarities between archaea bacteria don't have write if you

53:07 you carry out genes are structured as front Exxon archaea have some of them

53:12 to the same extent but it's a that maybe the archaea um maybe evolved

53:20 bacteria were first and then you had split off of our. Okay so

53:28 anyway but but we also see that one of the things you find is

53:34 what plays a big role in in in evolution, particularly my my bacteria

53:43 is what we call horizontal gene We'll talk about that and needed

53:54 But bacteria divide by so a cell into two daughter cells. Right?

54:00 that genes are inherited in both daughter . Right. Apparently that's vertical transmission

54:08 , horizontal they can do in one . They can exchange genes with other

54:15 three or four different mechanisms. And so that that has caused some

54:21 functions to transfer between these two. , so uh particularly in terms of

54:29 files. So there's a kid that grow at high temp and some bacteria

54:32 do that because they required some of genes from our kids. So horizontal

54:37 transfer kind of overall is kind of things more complicated. But nonetheless um

54:45 have these three domains. Okay. any questions. So here I noticed

54:55 I kind of bumped up um because makes sense as we're talking about uh

55:02 groups and so forth carry outs have on earth since about 3.567 billion with

55:11 b billion years ago. Um Of they've been around longer than anything

55:18 Right? Um came about maybe 21 2 billion years ago. So of

55:26 prepares first. And then the question how do so um the endosymbiont theory

55:33 of explains this. Okay. Where would have been and we can see

55:38 in you know, the organelles of . Right. The mitochondria has its

55:44 genetic material. Um It has its arrival zones. And so naturally I

55:50 . Okay, well this must have a cell at one point before.

55:52 symbiotic similar with the chloroplast class has own zones. The future of the

56:01 . Right. And so and both mitochondria and chloroplasts can, in the

56:06 of mitosis mitosis divine. Right. they have you know it's natural to

56:12 that they must have been a So became part of a symbiotic

56:16 Okay. And so uh certainly the would have been from a a profit

56:24 spiraling bacterium that took up that was by a larger what they call pre

56:31 cell. And they co evolved together then this bacterial kind of lost its

56:37 illness but kept kind of the metabolism that becomes a mitochondria similarly a photosynthetic

56:45 and larger pre cells. And it of loses a lot of properties that

56:51 it has the ability to still photosynthesize become. Okay so we can see

56:58 in uh in modern day which of you can there are similarities to certain

57:08 . Okay um duplicate but don't take to mean that you can you can

57:19 a chloroplast of the plant cell and put it on a Petri dish and

57:23 to grow. That won't happen. only duplicates as part of the

57:30 You couldn't take it out of the and hope it's going to do

57:33 So. No. Um but but can't do that inside the cell.

57:39 so um so the cycle of revolution from uh santa bacteria. Microbial bacteria

57:50 a is a common type of responding and each becoming mitochondria chloroplast. And

57:59 this um pre eukaryotic cell. Okay a lot of pierre a lot of

58:07 folding eventually covering the D. A. Jack. Um now

58:18 Okay so microbial genomes um are of nowadays we can sequence things fairly

58:28 Okay and especially with bacterial genomes. genomes relatively small. Use fairly

58:37 Okay and so of course there's tons information on computer databases etcetera. And

58:44 we can again we'll talk about this Chapter nine but population there's always a

58:55 jeans, education the synthesis that all of that species will have and then

59:04 other genes that that not all members have. But some of those won't

59:09 all depends on kind of a little and where they live and they have

59:14 certain features that are able to Better. Think of Nicola right,

59:20 . As can be both very benign no problems whatsoever. And those are

59:25 . Right. So obviously there's there's core genes that defines both of

59:30 Then there's other genes that that the hands that the other one doesn't.

59:35 and that's uh and you find these out to this kind of analysis.

59:40 . But because there are so much so much information that that we can

59:48 use it as a way to identify that we might not be able to

59:54 through the standard process of isolation, and take an environmental sample isolating the

60:02 in a Petri dish and doing that of a process that's been in place

60:08 a lot of years because not everything grow up so uncultured bubble.

60:13 Not everything can grow that you can't everything on a Petri dish. Okay

60:18 a with a growth medium. this is where meta genomics. So

60:26 of this as identifying those microbes that cannot isolate the culture in the

60:33 So the tradition has always been. we develop microbiological techniques take a

60:39 right? Grow it the plate. let's visualize it. Isolate colonies,

60:48 D. N. A. Do tests whatever. So that process does

60:53 always work. In fact it probably less often than it does work because

60:57 don't know what are all the requirements all the things that are out there

61:01 what they need to grow. You say it don't live in pure

61:07 Then we have the products of one the or the source for another and

61:12 extreme materials and this and that. many different types of associations. You

61:17 possibly figure all those things out. we have to have another way to

61:24 what's out there if we can't isolate . Okay. And that's what meta

61:28 does for you. And really only on the techniques of of re competent

61:34 . N. A. Right? basically what you do is you take

61:37 environmental sample. Okay. And we're to basically just isolate the DNA.

61:43 everything in there. Okay then you're to so then what you can do

61:50 take those fragments and then cut them and then cut them into into vectors

61:58 classics. Okay so again the standard of recombination techniques with people. So

62:05 gonna put so all the fragments in environmental stamping will end up in a

62:11 plasmas, and then we'll stuff them the coal I spring that will hold

62:16 for us. And we're really coli they'll make more copies of those do

62:23 two different things. Right now, have what's called a library and a

62:28 library. So, it's a library all the DNA sequences that were in

62:33 environmental symptom, right? Which represents of different microbes. Right.

62:39 you can have two different things. can sequence the DNA. DNA and

62:46 see, okay, what is Is it something that we already

62:49 Something that's similar to what we already about. Something different. So,

62:52 can do that or you can look you can express the genes in those

62:58 those vectors. Okay. And see I finding some new novel compound?

63:05 . You set up the screen for certain enzyme activity, right? Maybe

63:09 the next, the next uh, next uh enzyme that will break down

63:16 off your teeth is um Right, , you scream for that,

63:18 Maybe there's something in there that will some whiz bang an enzyme that has

63:24 activity that's this is this is used looking for new antibiotics and all kinds

63:31 stuff? Okay, biotechnology, Okay. But it allows you to

63:36 this. What happening culturally organism, you very often cannot do.

63:41 um, any questions about that? really the, you know, especially

63:48 you're studying microbial ecology, right? want to see what's out there,

63:53 in the soil, What environment in of microbes? You definitely go to

63:57 because to try to culture everything you be able to do and the amount

64:01 work to isolate every single thing and going on almost impossible. But this

64:06 it very easy. They just rely the database information, seeing what's out

64:12 . And you get ideas maybe the dynamics of microbes out there.

64:16 so very powerful tool. And so so here. Alright, so this

64:25 kind of switching gears a little Right? Um So this slide is

64:29 you, Let's see. We got is barnacles turning into geese,

64:33 This is um these subject tree that like these. That's what barnacles or

64:39 are assigned to ship right there. kind of uh crustacean. But I

64:44 anyway, but they resemble these little things. Right? So apparently the

64:48 gives rise to the east. Money soil is rise to frogs.

64:54 ? That's true in Houston, You have one of our w drains

64:58 around the subdivision frogs. Right, rain plus dirt equals frogs.

65:03 Um mice. There's a recipe to mice, right? Place, sweaty

65:08 and husks of wheat in an open . Wait 21 days while sweat from

65:13 underwear penetrates the husks of wheat and everything mice actual recipe. So this

65:19 all insanity, Right? So these actual examples of what and it's not

65:30 the world naturally operates. It's not I hope not. Sorry, that

66:02 bad. Okay, read carefully. . Don't get tripped up. All

66:28 . Okay. These are examples of put B. Why is it

66:39 D. Who said D. As a dog? So, did

66:45 say D. Somebody said D. do you say D. Okay.

66:54 , spontaneous generation? Not spontaneous combustion generation. Right. So biogenesis is

67:00 opposite of spontaneous generation. So none the above. So, because the

67:04 is spontaneous generation. Okay, Life non life, right? You uh

67:12 mix water in and dirt and you frog, right? That's mixing.

67:16 making life from non life biogenesis is opposite of that. That is that's

67:20 biogenesis is how the world operates, ? That's how you reform through pre

67:25 life, previously life drives to new . Okay, so, you can

67:32 that um the spontaneous generation rounds the time. It took actually took a

67:43 time to overcome that thought. But have to realize when you're in the

67:48 , 14 hundreds, 15 hundreds, hundreds, there's all kinds of crazy

67:53 . Okay, uh particularly surrounding how works, right? And so,

68:00 you might know this issue, that's a male sperm and that was

68:05 Look, look at that. He thought, oh, I see

68:09 tiny human in the head of the brought about the whole uh this whole

68:15 of uh being a sperm ist. . Which sounds weird? But I

68:20 that uh, males are the ones give rise primarily life. Right?

68:26 women are just another. So because platform human is already in the male

68:35 . Right? So uh obviously insane , okay, maybe was edible before

68:44 looked in the microscope that day. don't know. But anyway, so

68:47 bible force. So that's one of things that people that believe in spontaneous

68:51 . Right? I thought that you to have air, right? That

68:55 of the forces air oxygen present, that were present, then theoretically anything

69:01 rise to life. Okay. And , um, and so this is

69:07 pasture comes in, right? Not yet because we have two different kinds

69:12 thought. So first is kind of yourself to a London in the 16

69:22 . Okay. And you went to open air market, You see a

69:26 shop there, You see meat carcasses this net, especially if it was

69:31 , right? You can imagine to around flying around, right landing on

69:35 meat. And you might get the . Okay, well the meat is

69:39 , so you see maggots coming from meat eventually. Right, okay,

69:43 meet gives right to the maggots, ? We have air around and that's

69:46 that's what's allowing this non life of to get right into larger and larger

69:51 right, well now, so brady in and that was an easy one

69:55 refute, right? That you simply seal the seal the container,

70:01 Don't allow flies in and you never any. Right? So this kind

70:07 screwed spontaneous generation for for for macros Gordon's right now, in the same

70:17 , 16 hundreds when comes in. now you have this whole other world

70:21 was just discovered physical world, and it's fully micro if you can imagine

70:27 they saw where these things came Right? So this is where one

70:33 is, let me take that And this is and the setup here

70:40 a common common one because it kind does the same thing, but in

70:44 different way, but a step a let's take the broth and literally it's

70:51 it's just the kind of soup, ? And that's kind of what are

70:55 used by the nutrient broth is kind basically a beef bullion cube in a

71:00 . Okay, But it has lots rich nutrients that microbes can grow

71:04 Right? So but so once you the broth you have to heat it

71:07 boiling to kill anything that's in Okay, So then you're starting with

71:13 sterile broth, right? In both , okay, here and here,

71:21 , and then let it cool, , don't get cool, and

71:28 right, so fast open, uh course growth, okay? And he

71:35 , okay, well let me let seal the flask, right? And

71:39 don't see any growth, Right? again he's saying, well, life

71:44 come from my life, okay, fell into it and it began to

71:51 , okay? And with the sealed , you never saw that happen,

71:56 ? But then the spontaneous generation, said, hey, no good allowing

72:05 two can't get in there. So not fulfilling your criteria that you have

72:12 have continuous operation, so you can't your experiment. You're wrong, spontaneous

72:20 . And so um so this is of when when Petra. Okay.

72:28 just a chemist, uh microbiologists, , lots of different hats and really

72:38 really revolutionizes the field. Okay, are there any questions? Okay.

72:47 , so we're gonna this is a place to stop so we'll pick it

72:50 here, get into ecology and wrap Chapter one. Yes Thanks. Have

72:58 good
