Question
Cells with this property have an endogenous viral gene that produces a structure analogous to viral “tail sheaths” containing TssA/TssB sheath around an Hcp tube. Cells with this property have S-layers directly bound to their membranes instead of to teichoic acid. Cells with this property contain compounds that consist of an O-antigen, a core polysaccharide, and a Lipid A subunit. Cells with this property can use a “needle complex” or injectisome to export effectors across three membranes in the (*) Type III secretion system. The periplasm of cells with this are enclosed by a characteristic diderm double membrane that contains lipopolysaccharides. A fuchsin or safranin counterstain is used to visualize cells with this property. For 10 points, bacterial cells with what property have a thin layer of peptidoglycan, causing them to not retain a crystal violet stain? ■END■
