As complement system acts by degradation of the foreign body with the help of enzymes such as proteases , lysozyme and also activate macrophages to degrade the remain debries which shows us that complement play a important part for immunity in our body but if complement system is not activated then the bacterial cell degradation and lysis would not occur and it will stay protected . Presence of capsule in bacteria makes the complement system activation to stop as it hides the antigens of bacteria and that is how bacteria is protected .
Describe how stopping complement activation would protect the bacteria?
3. What are two ways by which bacteria can overcome (or resist) the effects of antibiotics (i.e., what are 2 things bacteria can do to antibiotics so they do NOT work against bactertia)? Which form of DNA is most likely to contain genes that specify antibiotic resistance? 4. Some bacteria can stop the activation of complement. Suggest how this might be accomplished (ie- suggest 2 or 3 things bacteria might do to complement to stop or prevent complement activation). Describe...
Describe two outcomes of complement activation Why are complement proteins made in an inactive form?
Which of the following structures is LEAST likely to trigger complement activation (or permit complement activation that would not otherwise happen)? A lectin bound to bacterial carbohydrates. A bacterium coated with IgG antibodies. A TLR bound to bacterial nucleic acids. The surface of a bacterium. unanswered
Where does the activation of complement system take place? What molecule is responsible for the activation of complement system? How is the bacterial cell going to be destroyed eventually?
for the three pathways for complement activation (alternative, lectin, and classical), which pathway is the least efficient at clearing invading bacteria? for C3 cleavage and amplification cascade, what goes in and what comes out?
Ch 15..answer this question concerning The Complement System: Where does the activation of complement system take place? What molecule is responsible for the activation of complement system? How is the bacterial cell going to be destroyed eventually?
response to these questions for bacteria that causing urinary tract describe how an immunological memory is created, how the immune system's diversity is achieved and applied to the specificity of the immune system • discuss how immunological memory is created against bacteria and whether / how the bacteria should protect themselves against this
Question 18 4 pts What role do restriction enzymes play in bacteria? How do bacteria protect their own DNA from the action of restriction enzymes? Change the surface proteins of bacteria; since DNA is not protein, there is no need for protection Cut foreign DNA into pieces; bacteria have RNA genomes. Destroy invading viral DNA: bacterial DNA does not contain the restriction enzyme recognition sequences. Restrict the growth rate of bacteria; bacterial DNA is restriction enzyme resistant. Question 18 4...
LECTURE 13 1)Where does the activation of complement system take place? 2)What molecule is responsible for the activation of complement system? 3) How is the bacterial cell going to be destroyed eventually?
1.Relate biological manifestations of complement activation to generation of specific complement products. 2. Analyze lab findings and indicate disease in relation to abnormalities (complement)
