Document Summary
Make soluble substances insoluble so that the cell can store them efficiently (the stored materials no longer contribute to the concentration gradient: examples: C3-c18 monomers, c and energy storage (c-4 monomer is poly-beta-hydroxybutyric acid [phb]) Glycogen: glucose polymer, c and energy storage. Sulfur granules: energy storage for h2s oxidizers. Gas vacuoles = protein shell, water tight gas permeable. Storage vacuoles = nitrate storage in certain large sulfur bacteria, membrane bound. Carbonate minerals = composed of calcium, barium, strontium, and/or magnesium. Mangetosomes = magnetic storage inclusions, can have poles/ mini bar magnet. Ribosome = site of translation in all cells (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) Carboxysome = polyhedral protein shell, contains enzymes for. Anammoxosome = ladderane lipid bound compartment mediating anammox reaction in anammox bacteria in the. Plantomycetes: kind of acts like a mitochondria endospores endospore radiation. Multicellular differentiation (sporulation) to produce: vegetative cell differentiates into mother cell and. Highly resistant to high heat, drying, harsh chemicals, and.
