Question
Answer
Peter Meadewor   "Piece of Bad News Wrapped Up"  
🗑
A piece of genetic marterial (RNA or DNA) wrapped up in a protein coat called a capsid.   Virus  
🗑
Nucleocapsid   Virion  
🗑
Virion   Virus particle  
🗑
Virus   No metabolic activity; No organelles; No cystosol; No liquid  
🗑
There may be some enyzmes within host. Enyzmes are not active in the virus. Just taken with them from the host   Virus  
🗑
Basic structure   Nucleic acid, Capsid, Membrane envelop  
🗑
Envelop   Bilipid layer around Nucleocaspid  
🗑
Acquired when it exjt the host   envelop  
🗑
Envelop   used for protection(hide form immune system of host).  
🗑
Used for recognition for attachment   Envelop  
🗑
Also fused with another cell of host   Envelop  
🗑
Capsomere   Protein subunits of the capsid  
🗑
Naked virus   Non-evelope virion  
🗑
Spikes   carbohydrate-protein complexes that project fromthe surface of the envelopes;  
🗑
Used by some viruses to attach to host.   Spikes  
🗑
bacteriophages or phages   viruses that can infect bacteria  
🗑
obligatory intracellular parasites   absolutely require living host cellss in order to multiply.  
🗑
the spectrum of host cells the virus can infect.   host range  
🗑
Nucleic acid structure   DNA or RNA  
🗑
Single or double standed: RNA may pair up   Nucleic acid structure  
🗑
Linear, circular, or segmented chromosomes   Nucleic acid structure  
🗑
Nucleic acid structure   RNA genomes unique to viruses  
🗑
Nucleic acid enclosed by a   capsid  
🗑
Capsomere   Individual subunits that make up the capsid  
🗑
Has 1 protein or more proteins   capsid  
🗑
capsid   proteins useful in identification; highly specific  
🗑
helical viruses   resemble long rods that may be rigid or flexible  
🗑
Ex: Ebola hemorrhagic fever and rabies   helical viruses  
🗑
Ex: Tobacco Mosiac Virus and SARS   helical capsid  
🗑
polyhedral capsid   many sided  
🗑
2 types of capsid   helical & polyhedral  
🗑
Icosahedron capsid   20 sides  
🗑
Ex: Poliovirus   icosahedral virus  
🗑
Complex capsid   bacteriophages  
🗑
Ex: rabies   complex virus  
🗑
Ex:Poliomyelitis & herpes simplex & Rubella   polyhedral  
🗑
Can live on surfaces   naked virion  
🗑
naked virion   more resistant to harsh conditions.  
🗑
A virus that is very fragile.   An envelope virus  
🗑
Contracted by droplet nuleci or blood or sexual contact   An envelope virus  
🗑
Poxvirus   small pox  
🗑
Paramyxovirus   Influzena  
🗑
Larger viruses about 200 to 300 nanometer   poxvirus & paramyxovirus  
🗑
Old scheme (host)   Based what they could infect  
🗑
Based on the DNA or RNA they have   New scheme  
🗑
ICTV   International Committee of Taxnomy on Viruses  
🗑
Virus classification   RNA, DNA, nucleic acid, shape, envelope, and size  
🗑
Classification naming   ICTV  
🗑
lytic cycle   ends with the lysis and death of the host cell  
🗑
lysogenic cyle   host cell remains alive  
🗑
Attachment, penetration, synthesis, assembley, and release   Lytic replication of bacteriophage  
🗑
attachment   phage attaches to host cell  
🗑
penetration   phage pentrates host cell and injects its DNA using an enzyme called lysozyme in its tail to break the host cell walls down to enter the cell  
🗑
synthesis   phage DNA directs synthesis of viral components by the host cell  
🗑
viral components are assembled into virions   maturation  
🗑
release   host cell lyses and new virions are released  
🗑
lysogeny   the phage reamins latent (inactive)  
🗑
prophage   the circle can recombine with and become part of the circular bacterial DNA  
🗑
RNA viruses (non-envelope)   Picornavirus  
🗑
Reovirus   RNA viruses (non-envelope)  
🗑
