NUCLEIC ACIDS • GENOME • DNA OR RNA • SINGLE STRANDED • DOUBLE STRANDED • LINEAR • CIRCULAR • SEGMENTED
CAPSIDS • ENCLOSES NUCLEIC ACID • MAKES UP MOST OF MASS • CAPSOMERES
ENVELOPE • MEMBRANE COVERING • ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM • GOLGI BODY • NUCLEAR MEMBRANE • CELL MEMBRANE
ADVANTAGES OF AN ENVELOPE • SIMILAR TO HOST CELL MEMBRANES • HIDE FROM HOST IMMUNE SYSTEM • ATTACHMENT TO HOST CELLS
DISADVANTAGES OF AN ENVELOPE • DAMAGED EASILY BY: • INCREASED TEMPERATURE • FREEZING • THAWING • pH ABOVE 8 OR BELOW 5 • LIPID SOLVENTS • CHEMICAL DISINFECTANTS
ENZYMES • MOST HAVE ONLY NUCLEIC ACID IN CORE • SOME HAVE INACTIVE ENZYME • HIV
VIRAL SHAPE AND SIZE • RANGE FROM 25-300NM • SHAPE DETERMINED BY CAPSOMERES OR ENVELOPE
HOST RANGE • ALL THE HOSTS A PARTICULAR VIRUS CAN INFECT • MOST ARE LIMITED TO ONE HOST AND SPECIFIC CELLS AND TISSUES • POLIO • RABIES
VIRAL SPECIFICITY • SPECIFIC KINDS OF CELLS ATTACKED • PAPILLOMA VERY SPECIFIC • CYTOMEGALOVIRUSES VERY GENERAL
FACTORS THAT AFFECT VIRAL SPECIFICITY • ABILITY TO ATTACH • ABILITY TO PENETRATE & ESTABLISH INFECTION • HOST ENZYMES, PROTEINS AND ORGANELLES
CLASSIFICATION OF VIRUSES • PLANT, ANIMAL, BACTERIAL • DERMATOTROPIC, NEUROTROPIC, VISCEROTROPIC OR PNEUMOTROPIC • INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE ON TAXONOMY OF VIRUSES (ICTV) • FAMILIES, GENUS AND SPECIES
VIRAL NAMES • ENGLISH COMMON NAMES • FAMILY-RHABDOVIRIDAE • GENUS-LYSSA VIRUS • SPECIES-RABIES VIRUS • FAMILY-RETROVIRIDAE • GENUS-LENTIVIRUS • SPECIES-HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS
VIRAL NAMES • OFTEN HAS GROUP NAME AND NUMBER • HIV 1 • HIV 2
HOW VIRUSES ARE NAMED • NUCLEIC ACID TYPES • CAPSID SYMMETRY • ENVELOPE • SIZE
THE ICTV HAS ASSIGNED MORE THAN 4000 VIRUSES TO 71 FAMILIES, 11 SUBFAMILIES AND 175 GENERA
NUCLEIC ACID CLASSIFICATION • EITHER RNA OR DNA • NUCLEAR STRANDS
TYPES OF RNA • SINGLE STRANDED -- ssRNA • DOUBLE STRANDED -- dsRNA • RNA VIRUSES MUST CARRY ENZYMES TO COPY RNA MOLECULES OR DNA TO CODE FOR THOSE ENZYMES
POSITIVE ssRNA • RNA ACTS LIKE mRNA • CAN BE TRANSLATED BY HOST RIBOSOMES
NEGATIVE ssRNA • RNA ACTS AS TEMPLATE DURING TRANSCRIPTION TO MAKE COMPLEMENTARY POSITIVE SENSE mRNA • POSITIVE SENSE mRNA IS TRANSLATED BY HOST RIBOSOMES • VIRION MUST CARRY RNA POLYMERASE
DNA VIRUSES • SINGLE STRANDED DNA -- ssDNA • DOUBLE STRANDED DNA -- dsDNA
BACTERIOPHAGES • ATTACK BACTERIA • DOUBLE OR SINGLE STRANDED RNA OR DNA • T EVEN PHAGES: T 2, T 4, T 6 • OBLIGATE PARASITE OF E. COLI
LIFE CYCLE OF THE T 4 BACTERIOPHAGE • ADSORPTION • PENETRATION • BIOSYNTHESIS • MATURATION • RELEASE
ECLIPSE • TIME FROM PENTRATION TO BIOSYNTHESIS • MATURE VIRIONS CANNOT BE FOUND IN CELL
LATENT PERIOD • PENETRATION TO RELEASE • INCLUDES ECLIPSE
BURST TIME • TWENTY TO FORTY MINUTES • ADSORPTION TO RELEASE IS BURST TIME
BURST SIZE • YIELD SIZE • NUMBER OF VIRIONS RELEASED • 50 TO 200 NEW PHAGES
GROWTH OF PHAGES • GROWTH CURVE BASED ON OBSERVING BACTERIAL COLONIES
PLAQUE ASSAY • SEIAL DILUTIONS WITH PLAQUE SUSPENSIONS • PLAQUE FORMING UNITS
LYSOGENY • LYTIC PHAGES DESTROY HOSTS • LYSOGENIC PHAGES ESTABLISH LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP WITH HOST • TEMPERATE • PROPHAGE
LYSOGENIC CONVERSION • TOXIC EFFECTS OF CORYNEBACTERIUM DIPTHERIAE AND CLOSTRIDIUM BOTULINUM • PROPHAGES • CAN REMAIN DORMANT FOR LONG PERIODS • MAJORITY OF BACTERIOPHAGES
ANIMAL VIRUSES • ADSORPTION • PENETRATION • BIOSYNTHESIS • MATURATION • RELEASE • DIFFER FROM BACTERIOPHAGES
ADSORPTION • NO CELL WALLS • RECOGNITION FACTORS • NAKED VIRUSES HAVE ATTACHMENT SITES ON CAPSIDS
PENETRATION • OCCURS QUICKLY • BOTH NUCLEIC ACID AND CAPSID ARE TAKEN IN USUALLY • ENDOCYTOSIS • UNCOATING OCCURS
