papillomaviruses and retroviruses Flashcards
exam 4 (42 cards)
Pervasive. Nearly everyone will be infected with an HPV at some point in their lifetime
papillomavirus
non-enveloped, icosahedral with a 8kb, circular dsDNA
Papillomavirus
papillomaviruses initially attach to ________ on the basement membrane
heparan sulfate proteoglycans
papillomaviruses infections begin in
basal layer
papillomaviruses enter by
receptor-mediated endocytosis
papillomavirus is trafficked to late endosomes, similar to picornaviruses but
caspid disassembles in the endosome
gene expression is tightly coupled to differentiation state of
epithelial cells
is the master regulator of viral gene expression by directing synthesis of other early mRNAs including E6 and E7
E2
early synthesis of _____ and ____ mRNA using cell-specific promoter and differential splicing
E1 and E2
binds p53, preventing cell death by apoptosis
E6
binds Rb and other proteins stimulating entry into the cell cycle
E7
directs initiation of DNA replication
E2
viral genome is mantained at a
high copy number
late gene expression occurs only in terminally differentiated
keratinocytes
keratinocyte differentiation activates late promoter and
stimulates DNA replication
differential splicing to give mRNAs for
L1 and L2 capsid proteins
Transport of L1 and L2 proteins to nucleus for
assembly into caspid
virions do not __________, they are released by normal ketatinocyte death and loss membrane integrity
lyse the cell
those that will rise to a cancer will have E6 and E7 but not
E2
replicate through a DNA intermediate (provirus) integrated into the host genome
retroviruses
enveloped single stranded (+) RNA, 1-10 kb
retrovirus
____ polyprotein forms virion. structural protein
Gag
retrovirus embedded in viral membrane ; glycoprotein
Env
viral enzymes: protease, reverse transcriptase and integrase
pol
