Example types with endospore
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
This may be triggered by heating the endospore. (8 words)
The cortex is what makes the endospore so resistant to temperature. (11 words)
Germination involves the dormant endospore starting metabolic activity and thus breaking hibernation. (12 words)
Outgrowth follows germination and involves the core of the endospore manufacturing new chemical components and exiting the old spore coat to develop into a fully functional vegetative bacterial cell, which can divide to produce more cells. (36 words)
The dipicolinic acid helps stabilize the proteins and DNA in the endospore. citation : 141 Next the peptidoglycan cortex forms between the two layers and the bacterium adds a spore coat to the outside of the forespore. (36 words)
The vegetative and generative cells are surrounded by a thin delicate wall of unaltered cellulose called the endospore or intine, and a tough resistant outer cuticularized wall composed largely of sporopollenin called the exospore or exine. (36 words)
Example sentences (15)
Formation and destruction Endospore formation and cycle further Under conditions of starvation, especially the lack of carbon and nitrogen sources, a single endospore forms within some of the bacteria.
The heat resistance of endospores is due to a variety of factors: * Calcium dipicolinate, abundant within the endospore, may stabilize and protect the endospore's DNA.
Even if an endospore is located in plentiful nutrients, it may fail to germinate unless activation has taken place.
Germination involves the dormant endospore starting metabolic activity and thus breaking hibernation.
It is commonly characterised by rupture or absorption of the spore coat, swelling of the endospore, an increase in metabolic activity, and loss of resistance to environmental stress.
Outgrowth follows germination and involves the core of the endospore manufacturing new chemical components and exiting the old spore coat to develop into a fully functional vegetative bacterial cell, which can divide to produce more cells.
That allows the endospore to show up as red, while the rest of the cell stains blue.
The core wall lies beneath the cortex and surrounds the protoplast or core of the endospore.
The cortex is what makes the endospore so resistant to temperature.
The dipicolinic acid helps stabilize the proteins and DNA in the endospore. citation : 141 Next the peptidoglycan cortex forms between the two layers and the bacterium adds a spore coat to the outside of the forespore.
The impermeability of the spore coat is thought to be responsible for the endospore's resistance to chemicals.
The inner membrane that surrounds this core leads to the endospore's resistance against UV light and harsh chemicals that would normally destroy microbes.
The vegetative and generative cells are surrounded by a thin delicate wall of unaltered cellulose called the endospore or intine, and a tough resistant outer cuticularized wall composed largely of sporopollenin called the exospore or exine.
This may be triggered by heating the endospore.
While the rest of a bacterial cell may stain, the endospore is left colourless.
