Due to the presence of a rigid cell wall, bacteria maintain a definite shape, though they vary as shape, size and structure. When viewed under light microscope, most bacteria appear in variations of three major shapes: the rod (bacillus), the sphere (coccus) and the spiral type (vibrio)....
Built upon the fundamental unit of triangles (the only two-dimensional structures that do not deform under pressure), the icosahedron is robust, encloses considerable volume, and can be iterated almost without limit. There are no known icosahedral bacteria, but the shape is found in objects as ...
Even more problematic are the shorter repetitive elements and sequence repeats present in bacterial genomes [5, 6]. For example, most bacteria harbor multiple classes of insertion sequence (IS) elements, which average about a kilobase in length and whose copy numbers are highly variable, sometimes...
Apart from confirming the presence of the antimicrobial phases in the depositedthin film, thecrystallitesizes evaluated revealed that some of thecrystalliteswere small enough to go through the pores in bacteriacell membraneto access interiorbiochemicalcomponents such as DNA/RNA and proteins thereby launch...
However, why bacteria should have a particular shape is a question that receives much less attention. The answer is that morphology is just another way ... KD Young - 《Current Opinion in Microbiology》 被引量: 200发表: 2007年 Extraction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA: a question of contain...
Cell ploidy/DNA content It has been recognized for a long time that cell size is proportional to DNA ploidy or nuclear DNA content in bacteria, yeast, fungi, and plant and animal cells. For example, the cell size of tetraploid animals is usually twice the size of diploid animals. In ...

Here we use common microorganisms to directly template not only size but also pore shapes to create three dimensional, free-standing, and electrically conducting carbon nanotube-based films without the need for binders. Two different types of inexpensive, non-pathogenic bacteria are used to template ...
The size of a cell is determined by a combination of synthesis, self-assembly, incoming matter and the balance of mechanical forces. Such processes operate at the single-cell level, but they are deeply interconnected with cell-cycle progression, resultin
