Q

Phenotypic mixing

A

Simultaneous infxn of cell with 2 viruses. Genotype A partially or completely coated with surface proteins of B. proteins determine tropism, but infect with A’s genome

RNA viral genomes mnemonic

A

All RNA viruses are ssRNA except reovirus.All replicate in cytoplasm except flu and retrovirus.(+) stranded RNA viruses are…I went to a retro (retrovirus) toga (togavirus) party, where I drank flavored (flavivirus) Corona (coronavirus) and ate hippy (hepevirus) California (calicivirus) pickles (picornavirus)

Q

Naked viruses and nuclear membrane virus

A

Naked: Papillomavirus, Adeno, picorna, polyoma, calcivirus, parvovirus, reovirus, hepevirusGive PAPP smears and CPR to a naked Heppy. All enveloped viruses are from plasma membrane, except herpesvirus (nuclear)

Q

DNA virus rules

A

HHAPPPPy viruses – Hepadna (HBV), Herpes, Adeno, Pox, Parvo, Papilloma, Polyoma. Parvo is only ssDNA. papilloma and polyoma are circular, supercoiled. Hepadna is circular, incomplete. All others are linear. Pox is complex, all others are icosahedralPox replicated in cytoplasm (has own DNA-dependente RNApol). All others in nucleus
