Summary Introduction

Microbes like bacteria, fungi, archaea, and viruses are cultured in the laboratory condition by both in vitro and in vivo techniques. Microbes cultured in the artificial growth medium like Agar based and cell line infections are termed as invitro growth conditions. Microbes infected in animal models and cultured are termed as invivo methods. Culture condition of microbes and optimization of its growth parameters helps to know much about the microbial physiology.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for?  3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
