Corona virus
Genome:
Length of genome:
Envelope:
Shape of nucleocapsid:
Genome : ssRNA positive non segmented
30 kb
Envelope: present
Shape: helical
15-30% of cases of common cold are caused by ——-
Corona virus
All that have helical nucleocapside have——- except —–
Negative RNA
Corona
Corona have the longest —— in viruses and most complicated
RNA
2/3 from the genome is dedicated for ——- aka—–
Replication
Reverse transcriptase complex
Replicase system
Genome for corona:
+ 5’ lead UTR R S E M N UTR poly A 3’
R for S for E for M for N protein
Replicase Spike Envelope Membrane Capsid
Host receptor for corona
ACE (cardiovascular)
DDP4 (in stomach)
Ace are found on —-
Cardiovascular system
Steps of corona replication:
1- fusion
2- ORF 1 +
3- ORF -
4- orf + (this will be the genome of the new born viruses)
5- HE S E M N are fragments (mRNA) that will be involved in protein synthesis for nucleocapsid
After uncoating the first step in replication will be ——– because the genome is —-stranded
Second it makes ———
Third—— subgenomic —-
Then transcription of the —– strand to form —–
Translation of RNA dependent RNA polymerase \+ Complementary - strand Nested set of subgenomic mRNA Negative strand to form the positive
Ovelapping genes present in corona genome will form —— after ——
And those proteins will form ——-
Replucative Nsps
Splicing into small proteins
Replicase complex
Copying the first 2/3 from the genome is (conti/dis)—— corresponding to—–while that of the last 1/3 is —— corresponding to —–
Continuous-replicase complex
Discontinuous - subgenomic mRNA
T or F
Sg RNA are directly used after being transcribed from the + strand genome
False
Because the result will be a negative stranded RNA
The virus should do a complementary + strand
Corona causes (chronic/self-limited)—- respiratory infections except in——
Self-limited
Neonates, elderly and people with comorbidities
T orF
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus is one of the first deadliest virus to be discovered in pigs (livestock)
True
T or F
Corona viruses are not present in companion aninals
False
Murine hepatitis virus is —– hepatitis virus and causes —— and it (can/can’t)—- infect humans but it’s used as —— to —–
Mice Demyelination disease Can't Model Understand corona viruses
—–order, coronaviridae is the family and we have —– genera
Nidovirales
4
We have —-genera for coronaviridiae family from —— order
4 genera
Nidovirale
What are the genera that infect humans?
Birds?
Alpha and beta
Delta and gamma
T or F
Alpha are more genetically variable than alpha
False
T or F
Alpha and beta are only found in humans
False
In rodents and bats too
How many corona viruses infect humans?
List the ones that cause common cold and others that cause respiratory disease.
7
2 alpha cause common cold (229E and NL63)
5 beta HKU1 and OC43 (common cold)
Respiratory diseases (MERS, SARS cov1 and SARS cov2)
