Virus Structure, Classification, and cycle of infections Nicole tobey, Nicole pilla, mackenziefrusco
What is a virus and what do they contain? • Particles made up of proteins, nucleic acid and sometimes lipids • Feed off living cells, host cells Contain • Capsid, a protein layer on the outside of virus • Genetic material, either RNA or DNA, tells the cell what to do NT
Differences in viruses • Come in different shapes and sizes, and have different structures • Can only infect certain cell types • Plant viruses can only infect plant cells • Animal viruses mainly only infect related species' animal cells • Bacteria viruses can only infect specific types of bacteria cells NT
Are they living?! • Not living Living things require: • To be able to independently reproduce • To be able to grow • React to stimuli • Obtain energy NT
Both Viruses Living cells NT
Reproduction of virus • Host cell is needed • Helps them grow and reproduce • Depend upon living organisms • Harm organs in the process NP
Viruses infect what? • Bacteria • Plant cells • Animal cells • Bacteriophages: viruses that infect Bacteria NP
Rna caused viruses Common Cold • Virus RNA is mistaken for mRNA • Transferred into viral proteins • Host cells releases virus particles • New particles infect other cells NP
RNA Caused Viruses HIV (AIDS) • Retrovirus: RNA to DNA • Inserted into host cell • Virus particles destroy immune system • Can no longer fight infections NP
Lytic cycle - STEP ONE : virus injects DNA into bacterium - STEP TWO : viral genes transcribe by host cell - STEP THREE : Bacterium makes new viral proteins and nucleic acids MF
Lytic cycle - STEP FOUR : Proteins and nucleic acids assemble into new viruses - STEP FIVE : Viral enzymeslysebacteriums cell wall • New viruses escapeand infect other bacterial cells MF
Lysogenic cycle • - STEP ONE : Virusinjects DNA into bacterium • - STEO TWO : Viral DNA inserts itself into bacterial chromosome, this is called prophage • - STEP THREE : Prophage may replicate with bacterium for many generations MF
Lysogenic cycle - STEP FOUR :Prophageexit bacterial chromosome and enter lytic cycle - STEP FIVE : Bacterium makes new viral proteins and nucleic acids - STEP SIX : Proteins and nucleic acids assembleinto new viruses - STEP SEVEN : • Viral enzymes lyse bacteriums cell wall • New viruses escape and infect other bacterial cells
Abc's: which is a part of a virus? A. Membrane B. Nucleus C. Capsid D. Golgi Apparatus C NT
ABc's: which do cells and viruses have in common? A. Reacts to stimuli B. Needs host cell to reproduce C. Needs parent cell to reproduce D. Contains DNA D NT
ABC's: A virus can only reproduce... A. asexually B. Within a host cell C. They don’t need anything, their independent D. sexually B NP
ABC'S: Viruses can infect? A. Plant cells B. Animal cells C. Bacteria D. All of above D NP
ABC's : What does lysogenic have that lytic does not? • A. Viruses can reproduce either infection • B. Host cell is not immediately taken over • C. Bacteriophage DNA that became imbedded in bacterial DNA • D. Proteins and nucleic acids assemble into new viruses A MF
ABC's : What step does lytic have that lysogenic does not ? • A. proteins and nucleic acids assemble into new viruses • B. Viral genes are transcribed • C. Virus injects DNA into bacterium • D. Bacterium makes new viral proteins and nucleic acids B MF
