class I ds DNA
— serotype is the pathogenic circovidisae
PCV2
found in pigs
PCV1 is not pathogenic
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
what do circoviridae look like
smallest 20-24 nm
non enveloped
icosahedral
ss circular DNA
how do circoviridae replicate
Replicates DNA in the nucleus of the infected cell and assembles capsid in the nucleus
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
what genes make up circoviridae
two genes, 3 gene products
Rep and Rep’ (Rep’ is spliced form of Rep) needed for genome replication
Cap protein forms the capsid (single structural protein)
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
— needed for
genome replication for circoviridae
Rep and Rep’
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
— protein forms the capsid of cicoviridae
Cap protein
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
— relies heavily on host (since only 3 gene products) Needs host cells to be rapidly dividing (S phase)
Circoviridae
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
porcine circovirus cause
Post-weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS)
Porcine Circovirus Associated Diseases (PCVAD)
caused by PCV2 serotype
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
symptoms of Circovirus in pigs
wasting, resp. distress, enlargement of lymph nodes, diarrhea, paleness of skin, generalized lymphocyte depletion. rash
Post-weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS)
Porcine Circovirus Associated Diseases (PCVAD)
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
how to transmit PMWS
direct contact, with coinfection
Post-weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome
porcine circovirus- PCV2
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
regularly found in a population or area
endemic
widespread occurrence in a population or area at a particular time
epidemic
widespread replication affecting numerous individuals in numerous countries.
pandemic
Post-weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) caused by porcine circovirus (PCV2)
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
treatment for PCV2
vaccines
porcine circovirus
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
human circoviruses
TT-Virus and TT-like Mini Virus (TLMV): >70% population, asymptomatic.
circoviridae- smallest, non enveloped, icosahedral, ss circular DNA
