Q

Reverse transcriptase

A

Makes DNA from RNA genome.

The DNA is then incorporated in host genome

Then the mRNA is transcribed from incorporated DNA

Q

HIV

A

Human immunodeficiency virus

Causes AIDS (Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)
Causes progressive failure of immune system.
Which allows infection or cancer to thrive

Q

The HIV life Cycle

A
  1. virus fuses with host cell
  2. Capsid with genome and protein enter
  3. Viral reverse transcriptase transcribes viral RNA to DNA.
  4. DNA enters the nucleus and viral integrate combines with host DNA
  5. The new viral RNA is produced and creates viral proteins that combine to form new virions
23
Q

Vaccine

A

weakens solutions of virus components
Stimulates immune system to mount defense against pathogen

24
Q

AntiViral Drug

A

help to treat (not cure) viral infections

(Hard to develop as viruses use hosts replication machinery and drugs used to block virus development may harm host)

25
Provirus
The viral DNA that is integrated into the host genome
26
Acute Diseases
Symptoms worsen for short period time Followed by elimination of virus from the body by immune system or recovery
27
Chronic Diseases
Virus persists in body for a long time
28
chronic disease examples
Low Level Symptoms Intermittent Symptoms Asymptomatic
29
Low Level Symptoms
Acute Disease Damage slowly EXA Hepatitus C and liver
30
Intermittent Symptoms
Acute Disease Ex. Herpes
31
Asymptomatic
No symptoms Ex Herpes 6 and 7
32
Oncogenic Viruses
Ability to cause cancer DNA or RNA viruses Ex. Hepatitus C
33
Animal Viruses
can insuce host cell to cooperate in process 1. Nonenveloped 2. Enveloped
34
Receptor mediated endocytosis
form of endocytosis in which receptor proteins on the cell surface are used to capture a specific target molecule.
35
Plant Viruses
Need mechanical damage to occur
36
How do Plant get viruses
1. Horizontal transmission One plant to another (Via sap) 2. Vertical transmission Inherit virus from parent
37
Hyperplasia
Abnormal proliferation of cells cause appearance of plant tumors known as Galls
38
Hypoplasia
Decrease cell growth, thin yellow areas
39
Cell necrosis
Directly killing plant cells
40
The steps of Virus
1. Attachment 2. Entry 3. Replication/ Assembly 4. Egress Release new virions produced in host cell by budding or lysis
41
Budding
Virions leave cell individually
42
Lysis
Burst
43
Apoptosis
cell suicide
44
DNA Viruses
Viral DNA directs host cell replication proteins to synthesize new copies of viral genome to transcribe/translate the genome into viral proteins
45
RNA Viruses
Encodes own enzyme that can replicate RNA into RNA RNA polymerase makes mistakes during transcription causing mutations to occur
46
EXAMPLES of DNA virus
Chicken pox Hepatitus B Adenoviruses Herpes HIV
47
EXAMPLES of RNA viruses
Influenza Hepatitus C Measles Rabies HIV
48
Adenovirus
Non Enveloped Animal Virus Causes respiratory illness Uses glycoprotein spikes to attach to host
49
Influenza
Nucleic acid and capsid protein in phospholipid bilayer Glycoprotein in envelope used to attach to host
50
T4 Bacteriophage
Infects Escherichia coil Tail structure attacks to host Head houses DNA
51
The Capsid Shapes
1. Helical 2. Icosahedral 3. Enveloped 4. Head & Tail
52
How does HIV infect?
Uses CD4 molecules on T lymphocytes as one of its receptors
53
CD4
Adhesion molecule which functions to keel diff types of immune cells in close proximity to each other during gen of T lymphocytes immune response.
54
Tobacco mosaic disease
Transfer from plant to plant via plant extract Stunts growth and leaf color change
