Microbiology VII

QuestionAnswer
What causes typhoid fever vs typhus? Typhoid fever: bacteria= Salmonella typhi typhus: bacteria=Rockettsia prowaseklii (epidemic), tphi (endemic), tsutsugamushi (scrub typhus)
What is a naked icosahedral viral structure? just nucelocapsid and genome
What is an enveloped icosahedral viral structure? surface protein with lipid bilayer, capdis, and genome
What is an enveloped helical viral structure? surface protein, matrix or core protein, lipid bilayer, and nucleocapsid and genome
What is viral recombination? exchange of genes b/w 2 chr by crossing over in regions with base pair homology
What is viral reassortment? viruses with segmented genomes (like influenza) exhange segments, causes pandemics
What is viral complementation? 1 of 2 viruses invade cell with nonfunctional mutation, non mutated will complement mutated and make normal protein for both
What is viral phenotypic mixing? infection of cell with 2 viruses, virus A can be coated by surface protein of virus B. So B will determine infectivity, but genome is still A
What is a live attenuated viral vaccine, do they need a booster? Who should not get them induce both humoral and cell mediated immunity. can revert on occassion. no booster. dangerous to give to ICPt and their close contacts
What type of immunity can a killed virus ellicit? only humoral, so might need booster
What viruses have live attenuated vaccines? small pox, yellow fever, chicken pox, Sabin's polio virus, MMR
What is a mnomonic for the live attenuated vaccines? LIVE! See SMALL YELLOW CHICKENS get vaccinated with SABIN's and MMR!
Which viruses have a killed virus vaccine? Rabies, Influenza, Salk Polio, HAV vaccine
What is a mnonic for the killed virus vaccines? salK=killed. RIP Always. Rabies, Influenza, Salk Polio, HAV
What are 2 viral recombinant vaccines? HBV (HBsAg, HPV (6,11,16,18)

What is a mnemonic for the DNA viruses? HHAPPPPy
What are the general charactersitics of DNA viruses? 1.ds 2. linear 3. icosahedral 4. replicate in nuclease
Which virus is the exception to the rule that DNA viruses are ds and linear? Parvovirus is single stranded. papilloma and polyoma( supercoiled) and hepadna (circular and incomplete) do not have linear genomes
What is the exception to the rule that all DNA viruses are icosahedral and replicate in the nucleus? Pox virus has a complex shape and carries its own DNA dependent RNA pol
What is the envelope and DNA structure of the Herpesvirus family? has an envelope, dsDNA
What does HSV-1 cause? (3) oral (and some genital) lesions, spontaneous temporal lobe encephalitis, keratoconjunctivitis

What diesease does EBV(HHV-4) cause? (3) mononuceloisis, Burkitt's lymphoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma
What disease does CMV (HHV-5) cause? infects IcPT(espAIDS retinitis), transplant recipient, congenital defectos (SIGHT-omegalovirus)
What does HHV-6 cause? roseola (exathem subitum)
What does HHV-8 (KSHV) cause? Kaposi's sarcoma
What is the enveolpe and DNA structure of Hepadnavirus? has an envelope, DS but partial circular
What disease does HBV cause? Is there a vaccine? What is interesting about it's enzymes? acute or chronic hepatitis, vaccine containes HBV surface Ag. has reverse trancriptase
