Q

What are differences in transcription of replicative class 1

A

dsDNA viruses(Class I)= we have nuclear and cytoplasmic replication
Nuclear replication- viruses use cellular RNA polymerase. Transcription is regulated by cellular and viral TFs, occurring from both strands. Examples: papillomaviridae( cervical cancer) and adenoviridae(colds)
Cytoplasmic replication- viruses encode their own RNA polymerase . Ex: poxviridae(smallpox)

Q

What are characteristics of replicative class 4

A

ssRNA(+) viruses- these genomes are said ‘‘infectious’’ as they can be immediately translated by the cellular ribosomes
While genomic RNA encodes early regulatory/replicative proteins, late proteins are encoded generated shorter/subgenomic transcriptssubsequently expressed(separation early and late)

Q

What are examples of families of replicative class 4

A

-Caliciviridae( Gastroenteritis)
-Picornavirisae(Poliovirus, Hepatitis A, Enteroviruses).They are naked viruses
-Hepeviridae(hepatits E)
-Flaviviridae( Hepatitis C)
-Matonaviridae(Rubella virus)
-Coronaviridae(Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome SARS)

24
Q

What happens during translation and transcription of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome

A

Nonstructural proteins are synthesized from ORF1 which is broken into two separate frames. Subgenomic RNAs are formed by splicing translational signals from the 5’ genome end to the individual genes

25
Q

How does attachment and entry of SARS-CoV-2 go

A

Entry to a cell through the interaction of its spike protein with the SCE2 cellular receptor. Proteolysis by TMPRSS2 exposes a spike domain that promotes membrane fusion

26
Q

What are steps of replication and viral exit

A
  1. Viral replication occurs in cytoplasmic double membrane vesicles that shelter the genome and concentrate ribonucleotide precursors
  2. Structural proteins are synthesizes on the endoplasmic reticulum
  3. The nucleocapsid protein in complex with positive-strand RNA genome is engulfed by membranes to form cytoplasmic vesicles
  4. That exits the cell by exocytosis
27
Q

what’s the ‘‘formula’’ of replicative class 4

A

(+)ssRNA–>(-)ssRNA–>mRNA

28
Q

What are characteristics of replicative class 5

A

ssRNA(-) viruses can be unsegmented(measles, rabies(Rhaboviridae), Ebola(Filoviridae)) and segmented genome viruses

29
Q

What’s multiplication strategy of negative strand RNA viruses

A

RNA-dependent RNA polymerase enters the cell at the same time the negative-strand RNA genome enters. The genome serves as a template for synthesis of mRNA. Later in the infection, that positive strands then act as templates for replication of thenegative strand genomes

30
Q

What is the ‘‘formula’’ of replication class 5

A

(-)ssRNA–>mRNA

31
Q

What are characteristics of replicative class 6

A

Virus A ssRNA(+) replicated through a DNA/RNA hybrid- viruses contain a diploid RNA+ genome which, once it enters a host cell, is reverse transcribed into dsDNA molecule(provirus) which integrates into the host cell genome

32
Q

What is provirus

A

Virus that integrates into the DNA of a host cell

33
Q

What viral enzymes are involved in replicative class 6

A

Retrotranscriptase and integrase

34
Q

What happens when provirus integrates into host’s genome in replicative class 6

A

It is then transcribed by the host cell’s RNA polymerase II. Thus different classes of subgenomic( single and double spliced) and genomic( unspliced) are expressed

35
Q

What are some viruses from replicative class 6

A

HIV1/2- AIDS
HTLV1-T-cell leukemia

36
Q

What is the ‘‘formula’’ of replicative class 6

A

(+)ssRNA–> DNA/RNA hybrid–>dsDNA–>mRNA

37
Q

What are characteristics of replicative class 7

A

Virus A ss/ds DNA replicated through DNA/RNA hybrid- partially double-stranded DNA viruses that replicate in the nucleus and cytoplasm of infected cells. dsDNA is completed and transcribed in the nucleus

38
Q

What can DNA from replicative class 7 generate

A

ssRNA+(cellular RNA pol II action)

39
Q

What can happen to genomic RNA in addition to being translated in replicative class 7

A

Genomic RNAs can be reverse transcribed to RNA/DNA and then ss/ds DNS which will be packed in virion

40
Q

What activity does polymerase have in replicative class 7

A

DNA, pol-RNA and -DNA dependent(reverse transcriptase) activity

41

What are some examples of replicative class 7 virus

Yes

A

Yes
