Chapter 11, part B The Prokaryotes:Domains Bacteria and Archaea
The (beta) Proteobacteria Proteobacteriainclude chemoautotrophs and chemoheterotrophs. Members of this sub-phylum are found in soil and water and some are human pathogens. They generally derive nutrients from decomposition of organic material.
The (beta) Proteobacteria • Thiobacillus • Chemoautotrophic, oxidize sulfur: H2S SO42– • Sphaerotilus • Chemoheterotophic, form sheaths Figure 11.5
The (beta) Proteobacteria • Neisseria • Chemoheterotrophic, cocci • N. meningitidis • N. gonorrhoeae • Spirillum • Chemoheterotrophic, helical Figure 11.4 & 6
The (beta) Proteobacteria • Bordetella • Chemoheterotrophic, rods • B. pertussis • Bordetella is the most common cause of tracheobronchitis (kennel cough) in dogs. • Zoogloea. Slimy masses in aerobic sewage-treatment processes sprinkler systems
The (gamma) Proteobacteria • (gamma) Proteobacteria: Largest subgroup of proteobacteria. Varied physiology, include the orders Pseudomonadales, Legionellales, Vibrionales, Enterobacteriales, and Pasteurellales.
The (gamma) Proteobacteria • Pseudomonadales: • Pseudomonas • Opportunistic pathogens • Metabolically diverse • Polar flagella • Often produce water soluble pigments • Plant and animal pathogen Figure 11.7
The (gamma) Proteobacteria • Legionellales: • Legionella • Found in streams, warm-water pipes, cooling towers • L. pneumophilia Hartmannella vermiformis amoeba filled with Legionella pneumophila (Photo: Holland/Özel, Robert Koch-Institut) Figure 24.15b
The (gamma) Proteobacteria • Vibrionales: • Found in coastal water • Vibrio cholerae causes cholera “rice water stool” • V. parahaemolyticus causes gastroenteritis Figure 11.8
The (gamma) Proteobacteria Enterobacteriales (enterics): • Facultatively anaerobic; Peritrichous flagella • Enterobacter • Erwinia • Escherichia • Klebsiella • Proteus • Salmonella • Serratia • Shigella • Yersinia
The (gamma) Proteobacteria Figure 11.9a, b
Salmonella • Salmonella enterica • Hundreds of serotypes • Often named by place of origin • Poultry / eggs? salmonellosis • Salmonella typhi • Typhoid Mary and typhoid fever An illustration of Typhoid Mary that appeared in 1909 in The New York American.(Public Domain)
More enterics • Escherichia • E. coli • Serratia marcescens • Nosocomial infections • Red pigment • Shigella • Bacillary dysentery or shigellosis • Proteus • Swarming colonies - UTI • Yersinia • Plague, Black Death • Vectored by flea • Large capsule • Erwinia • Plant soft rot • Enterobacter • UTI
The (gamma) Proteobacteria • Pasteurellales: • Pasteurella • Cause pneumonia and septicemia • humans can acquire the organism from dog or cat bites. Patients tend to exhibit swelling, cellulitis, and some bloody drainage at the wound site. • Haemophilus • Haemophilus "loves heme", more specifically it requires a precursor of heme in order to grow http://textbookofbacteriology.net/haemophilus.html
The (gamma) Proteobacteria Francisella • Chemoheterotrophic, tularemia “rabbit fever”
