| Title: Bacteriophage attacking
Contact: Dr Jon Heras
Description: Bacteriophage virus, computer artwork. A bacteriophage, or phage, is a virus that infects bacteria. It consists of an icosahedral (20-sided) head, which contains the genetic material (red), a tail and tail fibres, which fix it to a specific receptor site on the bacterium. The tail injects its genetic material into the bacterium, and this hijacks the bacterium's own cellular machinery, forcing it to produce more copies of the virus. Flagella from the bacteria can be seen, both near the site of infection and spiralling away into the distance.

| Title: Tick life cycle
Contact: Laurie O'Keefe
Description: General life cycle of the Black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis), also known as the deer tick. 4 stages of development (egg, larva, nymph, adult) and 3 hosts occur over a 2 year cycle. A blood meal is necessary to progress to each successive stage of the life cycle. If a tick feeds on a small mammal (white-footed mouse) infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, a bacteria, it may reinfect its next carrier such as a deer, dog, or human, and transmit Lyme disease.

Contact: Mieke Roth
Description: A four page article I made about the change in vaccine production since the emerging of the avian flue H5N1 that killed the embryo's of the eggs used.

| Title: Cholera Bacterium showing Nucleoid
Contact: Dr Jon Heras
Description: Illustration of a prokaryotic, Gram-negative bacterium with a single flagellum. The nucleoid, which contains the genome of the bacterium, can be clearly seen.
Vibrio cholerae is an example of a gram-negative bacterium with a polar flagellum which causes cholera in humans. The potentially deadly cholera toxin is produced using this genetic information, and the toxin payload is secreted into the host organism.
The action of the toxin leads to secretion of chloride and water into the lumen of the intestine resulting in rapid dehydration. In its most severe forms, cholera is one of the most rapidly fatal illnesses known.

| Title: Heartworm life cycle
Contact: Laurie O'Keefe
Description: When a mosquito carrying infective heartworm larvae (Dirofilaria immitis) bites a dog, it can transmit infection. The larvae grow, develop and migrate in the body over a period of several months. Mature male and female worms reside in the heart, lungs and blood vessels. The worms mate and the females release their offspring (microfilariae) into the bloodstream. Offspring can be detected in the bloodstream 6-7 months after entering the dog.
|
| Title: Cholera Toxin
Contact: Dr Jon Heras
Description: Illustration of the cholera toxin in the gut
Cholera is an infectious gastroenteritis caused by enterotoxin-producing strains of the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. Vibrio cholerae is a Gram-negative bacterium that produces cholera toxin. The cholera toxin is a protein complex made up of six protein subunits: a single copy of the A subunit (blue and red in the image), and five copies of the B subunit (shown in green). The five B subunits form a five-membered ring which binds to the surface of the intestinal epithelium. The A subunit has two important segments. The A1 portion of the chain (CTA1, blue) is a globular enzyme payload that ADP-ribosylates G proteins, while the A2 chain (CTA2, red) forms an extended alpha helix which seats snugly in the central pore of the B subunit ring. The action of the A subunit leads to secretion of chloride and water into the lumen of the intestine resulting in rapid dehydration. In its most severe forms, cholera is one of the most rapidly fatal illnesses known.
