Q

what are the types of infection and what are their characteristics?

A

1.lytic: host cell dies
2.persistent: continous production of viruses because cells survive and limited infection –> balance between virus and host
3.latent: few virus-proteins/RNA are expressed –> no infectious virus is produced due to molecular controls –> external stimuli drive activation
4.transforming: increased cell division rates –> carcinogenesis
5.abortive: reduced proliferation or poor virus/infection ratio (variation in replication-efficiency)

Q

what are limiting factors for genome size?

A

-time required for genome replication
-capsid size
-RNA stability
-precision of replicase

17
Q

what is the baltimore scheme?

A

. +DNA
v
+RNA > -DNA > +-DNA
v
+RNA >-RNA >+mRNA < +-RNA
^-RNA

18
Q

what are the pathways from genome to mRNA? (!)

A

the virus genome:
1.serves as mRNA in + strand RNA virus
2.viral RdRp transcribes mRNA in -strand viruses and dsRNA viruses
3.viral RT transcribes genome into dsDNA and cellular DdRp transcribes mRNA in retroviruses
4.cellular DdRp transcribes mRNA in ds DNA viruses
5.viral DdRp transcribes mRNA in Poxviruses
6.replication of genome into dsDNA and transcription by cellular DdRp in ss DNA viruses

19
Q

where does viral replication take place?

A

-Poxvirus: Cytoplasm
-RNA viruses dependent on RdRp: cytoplasm

-DNA viruses: nucleus

20
Q

which Polymerases use Primers?

A

-no primer: RdRp but specific site
-Primer: DdDp

21
Q

how are DNA viruses replicated? what are the two mechanism for dsDNA synthesis

A

1.Replication fork (RNA primer)
2.Strand displacement (never RNA primer)

22
Q

how is the Polyomavirus replicated?

A

+-DNA to either +-DNA or mRNA and then to protein. Eventually packed

-replication starts at origin
-genome is complexed with histones
-temporally and quantitatively controlled genome
-SV40 replication

23
Q

how does the SV40 replicaton work?

A

highly similar to eukaryotic

1.T-Antigen (hexamer) binds in presence of ATP
2.RPA binds, unwinding of DNA under ATP hydrolysis
3.DNA Pol a-primase binds to each singe strand and synthesizes short pices of RNA (=primers). Interaction between Pol and T-Ag –> Pol-a/Primase replaced by Pol-delta complex
4.Topo I, II, T-ag unwind DNA
5.leading strand is synthezised by pol-delta, RF-c and PCNA
6.lagging strand is synthesized in Okazagi fragments by pol-a and pol-delta, PCNA. RNase removes primers, pol-delat fills gap, ligase ligates fragments

24
Q

how is the adenovirus replicated?

A

-protein Primer
-virus encoded replication machinery like DdDp (takes place in nucleus)
-transcription via Pol II and III
-splicing
-all mRNA with identical leader sequence

-synthesis of early proteins (modulate cell cycle, DNA replication, block apoptosis) and late proteins (cell lysis, virion assembly)

-only leading strand, no lagging strand, no RNA primers

25
Q

what are the 3 main goals of early adenovirus gene expression?

A
  1. induce the host cell to tenter the S phase
  2. set up viral system to protect the infected cell from various antiviral defenses from the host
    3.synthesize gene products needed for viral DNA replication and later for synthesis of viral structural proteins
26
Q

how are dsDNA Herpesviruses replicated? How many ORFs? Where does replication take place?

A

-differential gene regulation: has immediate early, early and late gene

-84 ORFS

-replication in nucleus

-concatamers

27
Q

how is the Parvovirus replicated?

A

+DNA is converted to +-DNA. The +-DNA is converted to mRNA –> then to Protein AND to + DNA and - DNA which is then also packed into the virus

5’ and 3’ hairpins
3’ hairpin serves as primer
5’ covalently bound to viral protein

28
Q

how is the Hepadna virus (HBV) replicated?

A

-partially single stranded (part of + strand is missing)
-RT bound to 5’ end of -DNA strand

A

+ strand: mRNA polarity
-strand: complementray to mRNA –> no direct transcribtion
ambisense: one RNA serves as both

30
