DNA viruses Flashcards
DNA virus - diagram
DNA virus –> 1. complex nucleocapsid 2. icosahedral nucleocapsid
1. DNA virus –> complex nucleocapsid –> envelop –> DS linear –> poxvirade –> a. smallpox b. molloscum contagiosum c. cowpox
2. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> a. enveloped
b. non envelop
A. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> enveloped:
- DS circular –> HEPADNAVIRIDAE (HBV)
- DS linear –> HERPESVIRIDAE (HSV1, HSV2, CMV, EBV, HHV6-8, VZV)
B. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> nonenveloped:
- DS linear –> Adenoviridae
- DS circular –> Papovaviridae (Papillomavirus, Polyomavirus)
- SS linear –> Parvoviridae (B19)
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped virus
- DS lineae –> Adenoviridae
- DS circular –> Papovaviridae (Papillomavirus, Polyomavirus)
- SS linear –> Parvoviridae (B19)
Adenovirus - characteristics
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped DS linear DNA virus
Adenovirus - causes
- febrile pharyngitis (sore throat)
- Acute hemorrhagic cystitis
- Pneumonia
- Conjunctivitis (“pink eye”)
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped DS circular DNA - viruses?
Papovaviridae (Papillomavirus, Polyomavirus)
Papillomavirus - characteristics / aka
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped DS circular DNA –> papovaviridae
HPV
which is the MC STD
HPV
Papillomavirus (HPV) causes
- warts (serotypes 1,2, 6, 11) (condylomata acuminata on genitalis -6, 11)
- Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (most commonly 16, 18)
- Cervical cancer (most commonly 16, 18)
- penile/anal cacrinoma (most commonly 16, 18)
- head and neck cancer (mc 16)
Polyomavirus - characteristics
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped DS circular DNA –> papovaviridae –> 1. JC virus 2. BK virus
Polyomavirus - viruses?
- JC virus
2. BK virus
JC virus - characteristics
icosahedral nucleocapsid nonenveloped DS circular DNA –> papovaviridae –> polyomavirus
Polyomavirus - clinical presentation
BK virus –> transplant patinets, commonly targets kidney
JC virus –> Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in HIV patients
largest DNA virus
poxvirus
smallest DNA virus
Parvovirus
Parvovirus - characteristics
DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> nonenveloped –> SS and linear –> B19
Parvovirus - virus
B19
B19 virus causes
- aplastic crisis in sickle cell disease, thalassemia β, hereditary spherocytosis,
- slapped cheeks (erythema inectiosum or fifth disease)
- during pregnancy RBCs destruction –> fetal death (1st trimester), hydrops fetalis (2nd trimester), not significant in 3rs trimester
- RBCs destruction also leads to Rheumatoid arthritis - like symptoms and pure RBC aplasia
B19 virus - transmission
- respiratory aerosol
2. transplacental
BK19 in pregnancy
fetal death (1st trimester), hydrops fetalis (2nd trimester), not significant in 3rs trimester
BK19 in adults
RBCs destruction also leads to Rheumatoid arthritis - like symptoms and pure RBC aplasia
poxvirus - characteristics and viruses
DNA virus –> complex nucleocapsid –> envelop –> DS linear –> poxvirade –> a. smallpox b. molloscum contagiosum c. cowpox
poxvirus - viruses?
a. smallpox b. molloscum contagiosum c. cowpox
smallpox - causes today
smallpox eradicated by use of live attenuated vaccine
eradication was achieved by world-wide use of the live attenuated vaccine
Acute disseminated (postinfectious) encephalomyelitis is usually caused by (and examples)
- After infection (mesles, VZV)
2. Certain vaccinations (rabies, smallpox)
cowpox causes
milkmaid blisters
Moloscum contagiosum - presentation
flesh colored papule with central umblication
Herpesvirusus - characteristics and viruses
DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> enveloped –>
DS linear –> HERPESVIRIDAE (HSV1, HSV2, CMV, EBV, HHV6-8, VZV)
HHV-8 causes …/ seen in
Kaposi sarcoma
seen in HIV/AIDS and transplant patients
kaposi sarcoma - area
MC in skin, but also month, GI tract and respiratory tract
