However, all cells have four common structures: the plasma membrane, which functions as a barrier for the cell and separates the cell from its environment; the cytoplasm, a jelly-like substance inside the cell; nucleic acids, the genetic material of the cell; and ribosomes, where protein synthesis takes place.

    Attachment of bacteria to host surfaces often aided by pili or fimbrae is required for colonization during infection or to initiate formation of a biofilm.

Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or internal membrane-bound structures. Therefore, they do not have a nucleus. They generally have a single chromosome—a piece of circular, double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called the nucleoid. Most prokaryotes have a cell wall outside the plasma membrane.

They might need a new gene to break down an unusual nutrient source or degrade an antibiotic threatening to destroy them – acquiring the gene could mean the difference between life and death. We are going to explore the processes that bacteria use to acquire new genes, the mechanisms known as Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT).
