CELLS
• The microscopic study of cells reveals 2 types
of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Two Main Classes of Cells
• Prokaryotic (Bacteria and Archaea)
– Pro = “Before”; Karyon = “Kernel”
– No nucleus, DNA coiled up inside cell
• Eukaryotic (Everything else)
– Eu = “True”
– DNA inside membrane bound organelle inside
cell, the nucleus
Prokaryotic Cells are relatively
simple
• 1. Bacteria are prokaryotic cells
• 2. 1-10 um in diameter, just visible with
light microscopes.
• 3. Metabolically diverse.
• 4. No True Nucleus
MORPHOLOGY OF PROKARYOTIC
CELLS
•Prokaryotes exhibit a variety of
shapes
– Most common
• Coccus
–Spherical
• Bacillus
–Rod or cylinder
shaped
Cellular Structure
• A typical bacterial (procaryotic) cell has the
following basic structures :
(1) Cell Wall,
(2) Cell Membrane,
(3) Ribosomes,
(4) Nuclear Region
CELL WALL
• Bacterial cell wall
– Rigid structure
– Surrounds cytoplasmic membrane
– Determines shape of bacteria
– Holds cell together
– Prevents cell from bursting
– Unique chemical structure
• Distinguishes Gram positive from Gram-negative
Cytoplasmic membrane

A.Structure
-A phospholipid bilayer with proteins
-contains carbonhydrates
-contains sterols
B-Function
-transport:simple diffusion,facilitated
diffusion,osmosis and active transport
• -Endocytosis:phagocytosis and pinpcytosis
Cellular Structure
(3) Ribosomes
•
•
•
Small particles composed of protein and ribonucleic
acid (RNA).
A single cell may have as many as 10,000 ribosomes.
Part of the translation apparatus, synthesis of cell
proteins take place upon these structures.
INTERNAL STRUCTURE
•Ribosome
– Involved in protein synthesis
– Composed of large and small
subunits
• Units made of protein 40% and
ribosomal RNA 60%
– Prokaryotic ribosomal subunits
• Large = 30S
• Small = 50S
– Small than eukaryotic ribosomes
• Difference often used as target
for antimicrobials
Cellular Structure
(4) Nuclear Region
•
•
•
•
Nuclear region is primitive in procaryotic cell, i.e. bacteria.
Procaryotic cells DO NOT possess a true nucleus.
The functions of the nucleus are carried out by a single long
strand of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
The nuclear region where the DNA is present is sometimes
known as a nucleoid, NOT a nucleus.
• Bacterial chromosome is not directly intereact
with the proteins such as histons
• DNA contents range from about 0.6 million to
five milion bp.5000 proteins are coded from
the chromosomal DNA
• Bacteria may also contain plasmids,double
stranded DNA molecules.they are not
essential for growth and reproduction.
• Plasmids carry functional genes that give
certain properties of the bacterial cell for
ex.drug rezistance .some bacteria are
rezistance to some antibiotics.
Movement
Many bacteria are motile, able to move
independently due to a special structure
known as Flagellum (plural : Flagella)
PILI
•Rigid tubular structure made of pilin
protein
•Found only in Gram negative cells
•Functions
– Sexual pili—joins bacterial cells for
DNA transfer (conjugation)
– Common pili—adhesion
EUCARYOTIC CELLS
I. Organisms and general properties
• A. Organisms
– 1. Microorganisms
• Fungi
• Protozoa
• Algae
– 2. Other
• Higher plants
• Animals
I. Organisms and general properties, cont.
• B. General properties
– More complex than procaryotes
– Larger than procaryotes

– Have membrane-bound organelles
III. The cell wall and glycocalyx
• A. Cell wall
– Rigid structure
– Found on plant cells
– Not made of peptidoglycan, but of long
polysaccharide, e.g., cellulose
• B. Glycocalyx A carbohydrate-containing structure on the
surface of a cell.
– May strengthen membrane of animal cells.
– Serves as an adhesin, i.e., holds adjacent cells
together
Eukaryotic Cells Components
Cell Wall
– contains cellulose
– support and protection
Cell membrane / Plasma membrane
– Phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins
– boundary layer and transport
Nucleus
– nuclear envelope, nucleoplasm, chromatin, nucleoli
– storage and synthesis of genetic material.
Nucleolus
– Ribosome formation
IV. The cytoplasmic membrane
• A. Structure
– A phospholipid bilayer with proteins
– Contains carbohydrates
– Contains sterols
• B. Function
– Transport: simple diffusion; facilitated diffusion;
osmosis; and active transport
– Endocytosis: phagocytosis; and pinocytosis
VI. Organelles
• Organelle A membrane-enclosed structure.
• A. Nucleus
– Has a double membrane with pores
– Contains nucleoli where ribosomal RNA is
synthesized
– Contains chromatin: DNA + histones (basic
proteins)
– Chromosomes divide by mitosis.

The nucleus is the site of DNA replication and
RNA synthesis.
V. Cytoplasm
• The substance outside the nucleus and inside the plasma
membrane

cytoskeleton that provides shape, support, and transport
within cell

– Intermediate filaments
– Microtubules
