influenza virus replicates in the

A

nucleus (this is exception!)

57

A

be provirus in nculeus, will not be made or transcribed or infect new cells

Partially double-stranded DNA with RNA intermediate

83
Q

why does HBV virus bring the enzyme with it

A

it doesn’t need it, it could use host cell enzyme
reverse transcriptase is packaged and encoded is b/c its required for packaging genome (needs reverse transcriptase to package!)

84
Q

look at chart on pg 48-49

A

look at virion for each and understand

85
Q

depending on where virus assembles it determines where what are

A

inclusion bodies are

inclusion bodies are deposits of protein falling out of solution b/c there’s so much protein being made

86
Q

virus that assemble in nucleus, what kind of inclusion bodies?

A

intranuclear inclusion bodies (herpes)

87
Q

virus that assemble in cytoplasm there will be what kind of inclusion bodies

A

intracytoplasmid inclusion bodies

88
Q

if there are inclusion bodies or not depends on what?

A

depends on level of protein production

89
Q

naked viruses will do what for release

A

burst open cell

90
Q

envelop virus will require what for release

A

envelope from membrane bound body in cell - almost always plasma membrane

91
Q

when viruses are budding they will indictate where they will bud by doing what

A

inserting peplomers at that site

92
Q

naked virus released by

A

lysis

93
Q

envelop virus released by

A

budding

94
Q

herpes virus aquires envelope in what process

A

2 step process

95
Q

2 step process of herpes virus envelop aquirement

A

assembles in nucleus, when it buds out of nuclear membrane it aquires envelope from inner nuclear membrane. that envleop efuses with outer nuclear membrane and that first envelop eis lost. the final envelope is aquired by budding into the golgi and then continues to plasma membrane and outside of cell

96
Q

secondary envelop of herpes virus aquired by

A

golgi

97
Q

ex of segmented RNA genome

A

influenza virus (8 different segments)

98
Q

what can happen w / segmented genomes

A

if a cell is infected with (ex: two strains of influenza A virus), it can mix and match its genomes
reassortment!

99
Q

what is re-assortment used to do

A

used to generate influenza vaccines

100
Q

virus 1 and virus 2 (types of influenza) the different influenza RNA gene segments can be (what is result)

A

reassorted b/w themselves, so there can be virus that have features of both 1 and 2

101
Q

what would re-assortment be used for regarding vaccines

A

generate a live vaccine that is weakened (live attenuated vaccine)

102
Q

if there virulent strain of flu, how would you make a vaccine to protect ppl against it

A

grow the vaccine up with a weakened strain of the flu in fertilized chick eggs and it will reassort its genome
at end select for virus that has weakened nature of the one strain but has antigens of the virulent strain

103
Q

external proteins dictate what

A

tropoism of virus

104
Q

another mixing that can happen b/w viruses besides reassortment?

A

mixing of surface proteins

105
Q

describe what is mixed when viruses mix their surface proteins

A

peplomers of envelope virus

or capsid proteins of naked virus

106
Q

a cell that is affected with two different viruses may have altered

A

tropoism

107
Q

what is ultimate result of a virus that mixes surface proteins

A

that virus that leaves could have different tropism and infect another type of cell. however, it will only affect the different cell once b/c its genome hasn’t changed, so when it reproduces it will go back to what it could affect before

108
Q

in mixing of surface proteins of two viruses, what is mixed regarding phenotype and genotype

A

changing of phenotype, genome doesn’t change

109
Q

laboratory diagnosis of viral disesase

A

detection of virus
direct detection of viral antigens
serological analysis
molecular analysis of genetic material

110
Q

dhow is detection of virus usually done

culture of virus

if virus has hemagglutin can detect certain properties

111

HAI

A

can be done for viruses that have hemagglutinin

112
Q

determine amount of virus what assay used

A

viral plaque assay

113
Q

viral plaque assay

A

grow cells that are susceptible to infection by virus of interest
prepare different dilutions of virus (b/c when starting off don’t know how much you have)
incubate
virus infects cell
get cell lysis
sufficient cells lysed that you can see it
count plaques to know how much virus is there

114
Q

basis of viral plaque assay

A

virus lysing the cell it infects

115
Q

dilution factor is inverse of

A

dilution

116

everywhere a virus infects a cell the virus

A

will lead to cell death

117
Q

area of cell death is called

A

plaque (viral plaque)

118
Q

count number of plaques what will it tell you

A

tell you how much virus is there

119
Q

to determine how much virus is there after you get the plaques, what do you do?

A

multiply number of plaques by dilution number

120
Q

in plaque assay you always have to change the mL it was plated in to be

A

1 mL

121
Q

for viral plaque assay you need to know number of plaques in

A

1 mL

122
Q

five hours following infection with polio virus, what happens
