6+7: DNA and RNA multiplication Flashcards
Parts of Eclipse:
- Early transcription, translateion: enzymes
- Replication: nucleid acid multiplication
- Late transcription, translation: structural proteins
Classification of viral families:
- Baltimore system I. dsDNA II. ssDNA III. dsRNa IV. +ssRNA V. -ssRNA VI. viruses using transcriptase
Properties of virus multiplication:
Use of cellular enzymes, ribosomes, nucleotides, amino acids and energy
Properties of virus multiplication of DNA virus:
the NA is similar to the cellular genetic material
Properties of virus multiplication of RNA virus:
RNA does not store information –> needs special enzyme for replication.
- RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp)
- coded by the virus, sometimes carried in the virion
- mutations during replication
Coding system of Cell and Virus:
Cell: monocistronic –> separate mRNAs for the proteins
Virus: lack of space - can be polycistronic
Name some Double stranded DNA viruses:
Papilloma-, Polyoma-, Adeno-, Herpes-, Pox-, Asfarviridae
What happens during Early Transcription in dsDNA viruses?
- the viral DNA enters into the nucleus
- cellular transcriptase: –> mRNA
Except: Pox-, Asfarviridae
- own viral transcriptase
- multiplication in the cytoplasm
What happens during Early Translation in dsDNA viruses?
- on the surface of the ribosomes - cellular translation.
- non-structural protein synthesis
What happens during Replication in dsDNA viruses?
- Viral replicase (better than the cellular, production in abundant amount)
What happens during Late Transcription, Translation in dsDNA viruses?
- The progeny DNAs serve as template
- high amounts of structural protein synthesis
Name som Single stranded DNA viruses:
Parvo-, Circoviridae (circular genome)
What happens during Transcription of ssDNA viruses?
mRNA synthesis fro the coding tread
What happens during Translation of ssDNA viruses?
- cellular translation
- polycistronic mRNA = enzymatic cleavage
What happens during Replication of ssDNA viruses?
- small genome: no own polymerase
- Cellular polymerase copies the dsDNA
- eventually one tread is removed
What is special about Autonomous Parvoviruses, Circoviridae?
- multiplication only in S-phase (dividing) cells
- pathology = enterocyte, embryo, bone marrow cells etc.
