Framed Print of Bacteria, Genetic Recombination, TEM

TEM autoradiograph of mating bacteria. The Hfr (high frequency recombination) cell, is the large cell at the top of picture. It was labeled with the radioctive tracer H3-Thymine. The F- cell (at bottom) was unlabeled, and mating took place in cold medium. The autoradiographic grains indicate the presence of lableled DNA in the nucleus of the Hfr, and its transfer to the nucleus of the F- cell. Unlike a normal F+ cell, hfr strains will, upon conjugation with a F- cell, attempt to transfer their entire DNA through the mating bridge, not to be confused with the pilus. This occurs because the F factor has integrated itself via an insertion point in the bacterial chromosome. Due to the F factor's inherent nature to transfer itself during conjugation, the rest of the bacterial genome is dragged along with it, thus making such cells very useful and interesting in terms of studying gene linkage and recombination. Because the genome's rate of transfer through the pilus is constant, molecular biologists and geneticists can use Hfr strain of bacteria to study genetic linkage and map the chromosome. The procedure commonly used for this is called interrupted mating. Mag. 140, 000x. © Omikron / Science Source

Editors' Comments

the fascinating world of science. framed prints bring the microscopic to life, featuring images like 'Bacteria, Genetic Recombination, TEM' by Omikron. This autoradiograph shows the intricate process of genetic recombination in mating bacteria, a true marvel of nature.

Tiny threads of DNA weave together in a delicate dance, as two bacteria mate under the microscope's gaze. A burst of radioactive energy illuminates the transfer of genetic material from one cell to another, revealing the intricate process of recombination. In this high-magnification image, an Hfr cell at top shares its labeled DNA with an F- cell below, their pilus connecting them like a microscopic bridge.
