Inktober/Microber 2021 Day 30 Conjugation 👻🦠
Bacteria can acquire new genetic material in different ways. One of them is conjugation where the DNA is exchanged between two cells.

30: CONJUGATION

Sharing antibiotic resistance plasmids by conjugation has turned the much-ignored opportunist A. baumanii into a pathogen of repute. Carbapenemases for the win?

29 - Colony

I missed yesterday because I was very busy hanging out with my friends ♥️ Catching up with some colonies!

Oh no they are escaping!!

Inktober/Microber 2021 Day 29 Colony 👻🦠
A bacterial colony is a group of cells stemming from the same mother cell.

28: ADHESION

Infectious disease can be caused by mere stickiness, as with misfolded Prion proteins. We all have Prions, but if infectious misfolded Prions stick to them, they mis-fold too & the stickiness spreads.

Inktober/Microber 2021 Day 28 Adhesion 👻🦠
Bacteria can adhere to surfaces or other cells helping them to colonize different environments and form biofilms.

27 - Strain

This is me straining to crank out all the Microber pieces... Its really amazing to see what everyone is doing, but for me the creativity comes and goes. Some days I struggle with prompts while some other days the art goes brrrrr.

Inktober/Microber 2021 Day 27 Strain 👻🦠
While the bacterium E. coli is usually found in our gut, some of its subtypes (strains) produce toxins causing diarrhea in humans.

26: COMPETITION

Dengue fever virus has 5 serotypes that compete for hosts. Primary infection with 1 makes further infection with another much more dangerous. So it’s a real killer competition!

26 - competition!

I actually had no idea what to draw for 'competition' because everything is a competition for bacteria. Every niche is in a way a competition in which one species will thrive. Have fun with it, I had fun making it!

Day 26, competition! One way to out-compete other bacteria is to simply grow faster! In optimal conditions, E. coli can duplicate every 20 minutes

25: TRANSPOSON

Also known as jumping genes, they’re a handy tool in a many pathogen's toolkit. Transposons give Cryptococcus neoformans the genetic room it needs to adapt & resist antibiotics during infection.

24: ZOONOTIC

Sometimes we're incidental hosts to pathogens. Ebolaviruses mostly infect non-human primates & bats. Our Ebola outbreaks start w. a spillover from these animals, before human to human spread takes over
