micro - viruses Flashcards
(214 cards)
exchange of genes b/w 2 chromosomes by crossing over within regions of significant base sequence homology
recombination
viruses w/ segmented genomes exchange segments - high freq recomb
reassortment
cause of worldwide influenza pandemics
reassortment
2 viruses infect cell –> 1 has mutated nonfunctional protein so the second virus makes a functional protein that serves both viruses
complementation
2 viruses infect cell –> share coat proteins but still 2 distinct genetic material
phenotypic mixing
vaccine that induced humoral and cell mediated immunity
live attenuated
what type of immunity does killed/inactivated vaccine induce
humoral immunity
which vaccines dont req a booster
live attentuated
live attenuated vaccines
LIVE! nSYCnS MMRI - small pox, yellow fever, chicken pox (VZV), sabin’s polio virus, measles, mumps, rubella, influenza (intranasal)
live attenuated vaccine that can be given to HIV-positive patients who do not show signs of immunodeficiency
MMR - measles, mumps, rubella
killed vaccines
RIP Always - rabies, influenza (injected), salK polio, HAV
recombinant vaccines
HBV, HPV (6,11,16,18)
the only DNA virus that is ssDNA
parvovirus - part of a virus
the only DNA viruses that are not linear
papilloma, polyoma, and hepadnavirus (circular)
the only RNA virus that is dsRNA
reoviridae
positive stranded RNA viruses
i went to a retro toga party where I drank flavored corona and ate hippy california pickles
retrovirus, togavirus, flavivirus, coronavirus, hepevirus, calicivirus, picornavirus
structure of naked virus
icosahedral capsid and nucleic acid
infectious naked viruses
purified nucleic acid of most dsDNA and positive stranded ssRNA = infectious
noninfectious naked viruses
negative strand ssrNA and dsRNA - req. polymerases contains in complete virion
virus ploidy
all viruses are haploid (1 copy DNA or RNA)
the only virus that is diploid
retrovirus (2 identical ssRNA)
where do DNA viruses replicate
nucleus
the only DNA virus that does not replicate in the nucleus
poxvirus
where do RNA viruses replicate
cytoplasm
