microbio - viruses Flashcards
True or false : genetic material of viruses may be both DNA and RNA.
False. Never both
Protein coat of viruses
Capsid
Type of RNA virus which are like mRNA, they are immediately translated by the host’s ribosome into protein
Positive sense RNA virus
Type of RNA virus which should be transcribed first into positive sense RNA virus.
Negative sense RNA virus
RNA virus has this enzyme for synthesis.
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
Type of RNA virus that is transcribed in reverse fashion into DNA
Retrovirus
Retrovirus has this required enzyme for synthesis
Reverse transcriptase
Building block of capsid
Capsomer

Steps of viral replication
- Adsorption and penetration
- Uncoating
- Synthesis and assembly of viral products
- Release of virions from host cell (by lysis or by budding)
Host cell outcome
- Death
2. Transformation - oncogene
