但如果这种病毒或细菌是我们从来没遇过的，就会有另一套不同的免疫反应前来搭救。
2.It had thousands more genes and proteins than any bacterium, despite sharing other features, like the genetic code.
尽管共享其他特征如遗传密码，它具有成千上万的基因和蛋白质，大大超过任何细菌。
3.The Mtb genome is not the only new source of data able to provide insight into the TB bacterium's potential vulnerabilities.
结核分枝杆菌基因组不是唯一能提供细菌潜在弱点的新来源。
4.but it would be of less practical importance, since that something would be very primitive compared even with a bacterium.
但却不会有更多的实际意义，因为这种生命甚至会比细菌更原始。
5.The empty cell membrane of the bacterium may separate off, like the hull of a seed, leaving the spore as a free. round or oval body.
此细菌的空细胞膜象种子壳一样可被分离掉，留下呈圆形或蛋形散粒物的芽孢。
6.Every living cell, even the simplest bacterium, teems with molecular contraptions that would be the envy of any nanotechnologist.
地球上所有活细胞（包括最简单的细菌）都充满精巧的分子装置，足以让任何一位奈米科学家嫉妒。
7.Score one for Team Living: Some viruses sneak DNA into a bacterium through its, um, sex appendage, a long tube known as a pilus.
“有生命”支持者得一分：有些病毒通过叫做纤毛的一种长管状行期整合到细菌的基因组上。
8.He is stripping out a bacterium, and then refilling it with a synthesised genome to create what he considers to be artificial life.
为了创造一个他所认为的人造生命，他剥离出一个细菌，然后给它注入一组合成基因。
9.The team managed to produce a range of colours by putting these genes into the Escherichia coli bacterium.
这个研究组致力于将这些改造的基因转入大肠杆菌而产生一系列的颜色。
10.What he found was that frozen fish actually retained their flavor and any bacterium was killed.
