Microbiology

Chapter 13

QuestionAnswer
Principals ways viruses are different from bacteria and other organisms -Acellular -Ametablolism: no metablolism -Have DNA -Cannot reproduce but live cells do reproduce them
Diseases caused by viruses -Colds, -Herpes -Small pox -Aids -HPV -Cow Pox -Warts -Mealses -Polio -Mumps -Chicken Pox -Rabies -Ebola -Flu -Hepatitis (A,B,C)
Compare size of a typical virion to that of a typical bacterium E-Coli is 1000x bigger than a typical virio
Virion a single virus particle
Structure of a virus Nuclei acid- RNA or DNA (NO VIRUS HAS BOTH NUCLEIC ACID AND HAS 10 GENES) Capsomere- Protein molecule (encoded by gene) Capsid- whole protein coat, made of capsomere (containers) Spikes- Proteins Envelope- made of phospholipid bilayer (cell membrane)
How do helical and polyhedral differ Both refer to the shape of the virus but Helical has a spiral shape and have envelope Polyhedral does not have an envelope(cell membrane) and has many sides ----also check phone
How do enveloped and nonenveloped viruses differ The enveloped virus has a cell membrane and some has spikes on it. The nonenveloped virus does not have a cell membrane and are protected by their capsid alone
Events of the viral multiplication cycle 1. Attachments 2.Entry 3.Biosynthesis 4.Assembly 5.release
Attachments -Proteins on the virions surface"KEYS" bind to proteins on host cells surface "Locks" -Virus move randomly like molecules and bind to a host surface... it can bind to any cells but cannot affect any cells.
Entry VIRIONS ENTERS THE HOST CELL
Biosynthesis- Host cells transcribe and its ribosomes translate the virion gene. A virion has both early and late genes Early Genes-TTfirst code for viral nuclei acid polymerases (copy virus NA) resulting many viral NA inside the host cell Late Genes- TT last Code for: spikes, capsomeres, viral assembly proteins (HIV Prrotease) resulting many coopies of each of these.
Assembly -Some viral compoments "self assemble" -Other viral components must be put together by assembly engymes -Now cells contain many new virions.
Release -Usually kills hosts cell -some virus cause host cells to lyse (late genes code for lytic enzymes) -Other viruses bud from the host cell (enveloped virus (host cell plasma membrane)).
Can virus infect any cells no because Influenza only infect respiratory cells Chiken Pox infect skin/nerve cells Roton infect intestinal cells HIV infect CP4 T lymphocytes cells .............. Influenza can not infect intestinal cells and roton cannot infect skin/nerve cells
How does viral infection cause symptoms of disease -Killer T Lymphocytes can recognizes viral infected cells by killing them while virus is not mature which can help prevent infection. -Activated immune cells (Lymphocytes) secrete inteplenkins which causes: -Fever -fatigue -nausea -achiness
How do cells die by lysis or budding
What does it means if the lymphocytes are making the host body have all those symptoms It means that the body is doing it job and that also the lymphocytes are fighting for our immune system.
How to grow virus in lab give them the kind of cell they can infect...not food (only for bacteria)
how bacteriophases are grown in lab give them bacteria cell
Methods used for culturing animal viruses Some animal viruses can be cultivated in fertilized bird eggs.
Why do doctor ask if you are allergic to egg before getting the flu shot? Flu vaccine are grown in bird eggs and may contain egg
How would you culture animal viruses in the laboratory without using eggs? ==transformed cells or continuous cell cultures do not grow in a monolayer resulting in a cytopathic effect 1. a tissue from a live animal is treated with enzymes to separate the cells 2. Cells are suspended in a liquid culture medium to be kept alive 3. Normal cells or primary cells grow in a monolayer across the bottom of the plate
Different between infected and uninfected animal cells. -Uninfected cells are flat and elongated -infected cells are rounded, smaller and sphyrical
Viral infection diagnosis (detect virus we already know about) 1.Symptomatically 2.Serological rapid tests (ELISA) Direct-dectect viral Ags -virus Indirect- detect host Ags 3.Look for viral NA in PT sample
viral infection diagnosis 4. EM observation of PT samples (look for virions) 5. add PT sample- add it to animal cell culture (if test comes back negative) -look for cytophatic effect(if we know there is virus)

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:
