Crecimiento Poblacional BacterianoEl ciclo de la curva de crecimiento
Fase Lag : periodo de aclimatacióna condiciones de crecimiento, síntesisde RNA, duplicación DNA
Fase Exponencial : número de célulasse duplica a intérvalos regulares de tiempo, ocurre bajo condiciones idealesde crecimiento (ej .abundancia de nutrientes)
Fase Estacionaria : se agotan nutrientes,se acumulan desperdicios dañinos, procesos dedivisión celular y muerte estan en balance
Fase de Muerte : las condicionesprevalecientes no pueden sostenermás crecimiento y las células mueren
Adaptive responses to nutrient limitations
1) Starvation conditions2) Growth no growth3) Generation time days or months4) Depletion of an essential nutrient
Responses:1) PO4 may induce the high affinity i- PO4 uptake systems and/or enzymes that degrade o- PO4 (phosphatases).
Stationary phase Sporulate
Stationary phase
1) Changes is size 5-10 µm to 1-2 nm.2) Changes in morphology form rod-shape to coccoid-shape3) Changes in cell surface from hydrophilic to hydrophobic.4) Formation of fibrils and aggregates5) Changes in phospholipids from unsaturated to cyclopropane6) The metabolic rate slow down but increase turnover of protein and RNA.7) May synthesize 50 to 70 or more new proteins.8) Cells may become more resistant to environmental stress
Temperature, osmotic stress, high salt, ethanol, solvents, pH.
Como la célula regula la síntesis de RNA?
1) Growth rate dependent2) Amino acid starvation
Guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) slows down the synthesisof rRNA and tRNA.

3) Carbon and energy limitationSpoT bifunctional protein synthesizes and degrades ppGpp

Catabolite repression by glucose
1) Repression in synthesis of degrading enzymes for the 2nd compound 2) Inhibits the uptake of other sugars (Inducer exclusion)

Cell Division:is the splitting of a mother cell into 2 daughter cells separated by a septum
A.
B.
A: Contraste de faseB: Tinción de región nucleoide (azul) y anillo FtsZ (rojo)
Anillo FtsZ y División Celular
Proteína FtsZ :
• universalmente distribuida en procariotas incluyendo Archaea, mitocondrias y cloroplastos
•estructuralmente similar a tubulina (proteína presente en microtúbulos eucariotas)
The cell division in E. coli requires the following proteins:
FtsZ- forms the ring perhaps with the help of ZipA.
FtsA- is recruited by FtsZ and joins the ring followed by FtsK.
Then FtsQ joins in, followed by FtsL and B (L and B codependent); follwed by FtsW, I, N.
In Bacillus subtilis: all the proteins are recruited in a concerted manner.
DIVISOMA: conjunto de proteínas (Fts) que lleva a cabo la división celular en procariotas
Proteínas Fts : “filamentous temperature sensitive”
FtsZ : proteína que se polimeriza (10,000 unidades)en forma de un anillo alrededordel plano de división
•también atrae otros componentesdel divisoma (FtsA, I, K y Zip A)
•hidrolisa GTP para polimerizar y depolimerizar el anillo
ZipA : proteína de anclaje que fijael anillo FtsZ a la membrana citoplásmica
FtsA : hidrolisa ATP para ensamblarlos componentes del divisoma
FtsQ, LB,W, I, N : síntesis de peptidoglícano, es inactivada por el antibiótico penicilina
FtsK : separación de los cromosomas
E. coli
How is the site of septum formation determined?
Nucleoid occlusion- FtsZ ring does not form in parts of the cell containinga dense nucleoid mass.
- B. subtilis has a DNA-binding protein that prevents ring formation.
Min system (E. coli)- the system is a group of cell-membrane-associatedproteins that prevent the formation of the FtsZ ring inlocations other than the cell center.
Operon minB: is minC, minD, and minE- where MinD a membrane-associated protein recruits and MinC forming a complex that is less abundant at thecenter of the cell.- MinE accumulates as a ring near mid cell and stimulatesthe release of MinDC complex.
Growth yields
Y is the growth yield constant
Y= amount of dry weight of cells produced per weight of nutrient used.
This is determined when the limitation of the production of cells is controlled bythe quantity of a single nutrient that is the sole source of energy and carbon.
Y =weight dry cellweight of nutrient Ym =

moles of substrate
Molar growth yield constant
In aerobic bacteria
Y glucose = 0.5 Means that 50% of the glucose Cell mass
CO2 ????
In fermenting bacteria (glucose):
Streptococcus faecalisYm = 22 but this organism generates 2 ATP/ mole of glucose
How many cells per mole of ATP??
YATP = 22 / 2 = 11g cells per mole of ATP.
Zymomonas mobilis8.6g cells per mole of ATP.
Calculate its Ym ?This organism generates 1 ATP / mole of glucose.
Ym = 8.6g X 1 = 8.6
As an average you could expect that an organism fermenting glucose would form
10.5 g of cells per mole of ATP produced
Growth kinetics
x = x02y
x = anything that doubles each generation (cells, protein ,DNA)
x0 = starting value
y = number of generationslog
log x = log x0+ 0.301yg = generation time
g = t /y y = t /gWhere t is the time elapsed
log x = log x0+ 0.301tg
g (tiempo de generación):= t(Af)-t(Ai)

How g relates to k?
Slope = 0.301/g
log x0
time
log x = log x0+ 0.301tg
Y = b + mx
log x = kt/2.303 + log x0
slope
k/2.303 = 0.301/g k = 0.301/g (2.303) k = 0.693/g

Steady State Growth and Continuous Growth
Quimiostato : artefacto para regular el crecimiento de un cultivo durante un periodo prolongado. Se usa en aplicaciones industriales para la derivación de productos de origen microbiano.
The chemostat relieves the insufficiency of nutrients, the accumulation of toxic substances, and the accumulation of excess cells in the culture, which are the parameters that initiate the stationary phase of the growth cycle. The bacterial culture can be grown and maintained at relatively constant conditions depending on the flow rate of the nutrients.
The chemostat: Equations
D
If a chemostat is operated at F = 10 ml/h and V= 1LWhat is the value of D.
D = 10 ml/h / (1000mL)D = 0.01h-1
Dx
Dx = rate of loss of cellsx = # of cells in the growth chamber
If you have 3.67 X 107, What is the value of Dx?
Dx = (0.01h-1) 3.67 X 107
Dx = 3.67 X 105 cells h-1
Dilution rate D = F / V
F= flow rateV= volume of medium in the growth chamber
Problem: How to choose the proper size inoculum.
You have a culture with a density of 108 cells/mL and you would likeTo subculture it so that 16 hr later the density is is 108 cells/mL again.
If g = 2 hr, what should x0 be?
x = x02y y = t /g
y = t /g = 16/2= 8
108= x028 x0= 3.9 X 105 cells/mL
C1V1= C2V2
108 (X) = 3.9 X 105 (1000)X = 3.9 mL
