Microbial Cell Structure - Archaea and Eukarya

Table of Contents: The differences in structure between Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. If you want to learn more, check out Through the Microscope (https://textbookconsortia.com/through-the-microscope-table-of-contents/), my textbook. Chapters 2 and 3 on cell structure are open to the public. 00:00 - Cell structure and function in Archaea 00:45 - Similarity is NOT relatedness 01:10 - Examples of Differences 02:43 - Fun Archaeal shapes 03:10 - Unique features of Archaeal cell structure 03:46 - Archaeal cell membranes: lipids are ether-linked lipids 04:03 - Archaeal cell membranes: lipid side chains are from isoprenoids, not fatty acids 04:44 - Archaeal cell membranes have a similar structure to their bacterial and eukarya counterparts 05:15 - Many cell wall types in Archaea 06:01 - S-layer proteins are common in Archaea 06:21 - RNA Polymerase 06:48 - Clicker Question 07:12 - Eukaryotes have a more complex cell structure 07:33 - Organelles Common to all Eukaryotic Cells 08:14 - Mitochondria 08:43 - Chloroplasts 08:54 - Concept Map
