ENVELOPED VIRUS

The diseases are associated with primary infection and reactivated disease by a given virus
Establish latent infection
Virion – spherical, 150-200 nm in diameter (icosahedral)
Genome – double-stranded DNA, linear, 125-240 kbp, reiterated sequences
Proteins – more than 35 proteins in virion
Envelope – contains viral glycoproteins, Fc receptors
Replication – nucleus, bud from nuclear membrane
Outstanding characteristics – encode many enzymes, establish latent infections, persist indefinitely in infected hosts, frequently reactivated in immunosuppressed hosts, some cause cancer
