what is the color of the capsule and color of the bacterial cell of klebsiella pneumoniae respectively?
Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by two membrane bilayers separated by a space termed the periplasm. The periplasm is a multipurpose compartment separate from the cytoplasm. The periplasm has a distinct oxidizing environment that allow certain key protein structural features to be formed. Can you identify an amino acid(s) that would be affected by this oxidizing environment? How would it be affected, and what structural features would be sensitive to this environment? Can you discuss the implications of this from a standpoint of recombinant protein expression?
Bacteria of the genus Mycoplasma are distinguished from other bacterial cells by
1) cell walls composed solely of amino acids.
O 2) the absence of a cytoplasmic membrane.
O 3) the absence of a cell wall.
O 4) Have large capsules.
5) the presence of mycolic acid in their cell walls.
