Q

Properties of virus multiplication of RNA virus:

A

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

Q

What is special about Dependovirus?

A

use the replicase of adeno- or herpesviruses

18
Q

Name some dsRNA viruses?

A

Reo-, Birnaviridae

19
Q

What is special about Reo- and Birnaviridae?

A

dsRNA

  • segmented genome (Reo-10:12; Birna-2)
  • Alien NA for the cell: intensive interferon response, partial decapsidation
20
Q

What happens during Transcription of dsRNA viruses?

A
  • the dsRNa is not readable for the ribosomes

- viral RdRp - structural: transcription mode = mRNA synthesis

21
Q

What happens during Translation of dsRNA viruses?

A
  • monocistronic coding: segment - proteins
22
Q

What happens during Replication of dsRNA viruses?

A
  • the mRNA enters into the inner capsid

- viral RdRp in replicase mode: the mRNA is supplemented with a negative thread

23
Q

What happens during Late Transcription, Translation of dsRNA viruses?

A

assembly of progeny virions

24
Q

Name some +ssRNA viruses?

A

Picorna-, Calici-, Toga-, Flavi-, Corona-, Arteri-, Astroviridae

25
Q

What happens during Transcription of +ssRNA?

A
  • genomic RNA - mRNA
  • 5´ methyl capped, 3´ polyadenylated
  • directly attaches to the ribosomes
26
Q

What happens during Translation of +ssRNA?

A

Two different: Plycistronic mRNA and monocistronic mRNA

27
Q

What happens during Translation of +ssRNA in Polycistronic mRNA?

A

picornaviruses, flaviviruses

  • precursor polypeptide
  • protease cleavage
  • equimolar protein production
28
Q

What happens during Translation of +ssRNA in Monocistronic mRNA?

A

subgenomic mRNA synhtesis
Nidovirales, Calci-, Togaviridae
- for structural protein production
- more accurate synthesis control

29
Q

What happens during Replication of +ssRNA?

A
  • viral replicase (RdRp, non-structural)
  • replicative intermediate forms (RI): dsRNA, -ssRNA
  • the -ssRNA is template for the progeny +ssRNA genome
  • translation from the progeny RNA
  • finally the + threads incorporate into the progeny virions
30

31
Q

What happens during Transcription of -ssRNA?

A
  • negative sense RNA (3´–>5´)
  • not readable for the ribosomes –> viral RdRp- structural
  • transcription mode: complementary (+) thread synthesis –> mRNA
  • Arenaviridae, vertain Bunyaviruses: Ambisense genome
32
Q

What happens during Translation of -ssRNA?

A

monocistronic

  • Orthomyxo-, Arena-, Bunyav: segmented
  • Mononegavirales: short mRNAs
33
Q

What happens during Replication of -ssRNA?

A
the RdRp in replication mode: 
- dsRNA (RI) in the nucleocapsid
- full length +ssRNA synthesis
- -ssRNA synthesis
finally the negative threads stay in the progeny virions
34
Q

Name some viruses using reverse transcriptase: RNA/DNA

A

Retroviridae

35
Q

What happens during Transcription of Viruses using reverse transcriptase: RNA/DNA?

A

Genome - mRNA, but:
- reverse transcriptase (structural)
- transcribes to dsDNA
The viral dsDNA integrates into the cellular genome:
- provirus
- cell division - virus genome copying
Transcription:
- cellular transcriptase: mRNA production
- long terminal repeat (LRT) regions: intensive promoter, frequent transcription

36
Q

What happens during Translation of Viruses using reverse transcriptase: RNA/DNA?

A

polycistronic mRNA - protease cleavage

37
Q

What happens during Replication of Viruses using reverse transcriptase: RNA/DNA?

A

- the mRNA will finally serve as the genome of the progeny viruses

A

ss/ds DNA (circular)

39

What happens during Transcription of Hepadnaviridae?

A
  • repair of the grapped genome: viral polymerase

What happens during Translation of Hepadnaviridae?

A

41
Q

What happens during Replication of Hepadnaviridae?

A
  • full length transcripts of “mRNA” (cellular enzyme)

  • circularization, partly completed to dsDNA
42
Q

What are the importance of eclipse strategies?

A
  • consequences on pathogenesis, epidemiology
  • detection of replicative intermediate forms - active virus mulitplication
  • in vitro protein expression studies
