Chapter 1: Microbial Life: Origin and Discover

Concept 1: Cells are fundamental units of life

All living things are made up of 1 or more cells

There are 3 domains of life

oEukarya, Bacteria, Archaea

There are 2 kingdoms of unicellular organisms

oBacteria, Archaea

There are 2 kingdoms of multicellular organisms

oPlants, animals (including fungi)

There is one kingdom that is made of both unicellular and multicellular organisms

oProtists (including algae)

Concept 2: Cell Function

Each living cell has the capacity to perform certain basic functions that are characteristic

of all living forms

A cell is able to live and perform all its functions because of its organelles

These organelles together constitute the basic unit of life: the cell

Eight Life Functions:

Respiration

Regulation

Reproduction

Excretion

Growth

Nutrition

Transport

Synthesis

Concept 3: Macromolecules are fundamental to all cells

•Carbohydrates

-Building blocks: monosaccharides

•Proteins

-Building blocks: amino acids

•Nucleic acids

-Building blocks: nucleotides

•Lipids

-Building blocks: glycerol, fatty acids

Concept 4: Origins of life on Earth

All life on Earth is made of stardust: the remnants of supernovae

The origin of life required fundamental elements that make up organic molecules

Life requires the continual input of energy, and a temperature range that permits liquid

water

Earliest known forms of life were unicellular

Concept 5: Endosymbiosis

•ER and nuclear envelope of eukaryotes may have evolved from infoldings of the plasma

membrane in a primordial cell

•Mitochondria and chloroplasts are organelles that, at a critical point in evolution, were

engulfed by host cells and evolved to carry out specific functions for them

•Mitochondria: produce energy from chemical components

•Chloroplasts: produce energy from photons (light)

Robert Hooke (1635-1703)

Built the first compound microscope

~30x power

Observed (and drew) nematodes, mites and mold sporangia

Coined the term ‘cell’

Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723)

The son of a draper, he experimented with grinding ever-stronger magnifying lenses

oUp to 500x magnification

Became the first person to observe single-celled organisms

o“Animalcules”

Edward Jenner (1749- 1823)

Introduced ‘vaccination’ against smallpox

Smallpox was a dread disease:

okilled 20% of all who were infected, and 80% of children

oBlinded and scarred many other victims

o“Variolation” was practiced but carried great risks

Jenner developed vaccination with material from cowpox scabs, first testing it on an 8 yr

old boy, James Phipps

Jenner attempted to sicken poor Phipps with smallpox over 20 times subsequent to

vaccination!

Rahima Banu: last patient to have suffered a natural smallpox (Variola major) infection,

Vaccines

•Sadly, public opposition is born out of irrational fear, and poor science

•Vaccines continue to be the most effective method for prevention of disease

The Anti Vaccine Body Count

(Formerly the “Jenny McCarthy Body Count”)

“The United States Anti-Vaccination Movement is composed of a variety of individuals

ranging from former doctors who should know better, to semi-celebrities who have no

medical training, to anti-government conspiracy theorists who distrust anything that the

government says. They all hold onto the mistaken belief that autism is caused by

receiving childhood vaccines.”

Disproving ‘spontaneous generation’

Where did microscopic life come from?

oWhat are the ‘parents’ of microbes?

Lazzaro Spallanzani (1729-1799) was the first to show that broth sterilized (by boiling)

failed to grow microbes

oGood evidence against spontaneous generation, but did not quite silence the

critics…

Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)

•A chemist (discovered chirality of organic molecules)

•Discovered fermentative metabolism (and was much celebrated by brewers as a result!)

•Used swan-necked flasks to demonstrate that microbes are not produced through

spontaneous generation…
