Virology Flashcards
targets for neutralizing antibodies
exposed proteins on capsid and membrane
type V virus genome type
single strand -RNA to +mRNA
type I virus genome type
double strand DNA to mRNA
outcome of infection - latent
no production of infectious particles, but genetic info remiains
measures how many viruses come out of single infection
single-step growth curve
outcome of infection - abortive infection
virus life cycle incomplete and virus lost
outcome of infection - persistent infection
chronic virus reproduction
membrane fusion of adjacent cells to form giant, multinucleate cells =
syncitia
infectious particle =
virus
viral particle =
viron
type IV virus genome type
single strand +RNA to -RNA to +mRNA
spread of virus throughout the body via blood =
viremia
MOI =
multiplicity of infection (how many viruses coming into cell?)
type III virus genome type
double strand RNA to -RNA, to +mRNA
type VI virus genome type
single strand +RNA to -DNA to Double stranded DNA to +mRNA
