Chapter 19~Viruses

Viral structure Virus: “poison” (Latin); infectious particles consisting of a nucleic acid in a protein coat Viruses are not cells Capsid; (protein shell that encloses the viral genome built from protein subunits called capsomeres

A capsid can have various structures Fig. 19-3 A capsid can have various structures RNA DNA Membranous envelope Head RNA Capsomere DNA Capsid Tail sheath Capsomere of capsid Tail fiber Glycoprotein Glycoproteins 18  250 nm 70–90 nm (diameter) 80–200 nm (diameter) 80  225 nm Figure 19.3 Viral structure 20 nm 50 nm 50 nm 50 nm (a) Tobacco mosaic virus (b) Adenoviruses (c) Influenza viruses (d) Bacteriophage T4

Viral structure Viral genomes may consist of either Double- or single-stranded DNA, or Double- or single-stranded RNA Some viruses have membranous envelopes that help them infect hosts These viral envelopes surround the capsids of influenza viruses and many other viruses found in animals

Concept 19.2: Viruses reproduce only in host cells Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, which means they can reproduce only within a host cell Each virus has a host range, a limited number of host cells that it can infect (receptor molecules on the surface of cells)

General Features of Viral Reproductive Cycles Once a viral genome has entered a cell, the cell begins to manufacture viral proteins The virus makes use of host enzymes, ribosomes, tRNAs, amino acids, ATP, and other molecules Viral nucleic acid molecules and capsomeres spontaneously self-assemble into new viruses

VIRUS Entry and uncoating DNA Capsid Transcription and manufacture Fig. 19-4 VIRUS Entry and uncoating 1 DNA Capsid Transcription and manufacture of capsid proteins 3 2 Replication HOST CELL Viral DNA mRNA Viral DNA Capsid proteins Figure 19.4 A simplified viral reproductive cycle Self-assembly of new virus particles and their exit from the cell 4

Viral reproduction: Lytic Cycle Phages have two reproductive mechanisms: the lytic cycle and the lysogenic cycle The lytic cycle: 1- attachment 2- injection 3- hydrolyzation 4- assembly 5- release Results in death of host cell Virulent virus (phage reproduction only by the lytic cycle) Bacteria have defenses against phages, including restriction enzymes that recognize and cut up certain phage DNA

Viral reproduction: Lysogenic Cycle Genome replicated w/o destroying the host cell Genetic material of virus becomes incorporated into the host cell DNA (prophage DNA) Temperate virus (phages capable of using the lytic and lysogenic cycles) May give rise to lytic cycle

RNA viruses Retroviruses: transcribe DNA from an RNA template (RNA--->DNA) Reverse transcriptase (catalyzing enzyme) HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is the retrovirus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)

The viral DNA that is integrated into the host genome is called a provirus Unlike a prophage, a provirus remains a permanent resident of the host cell The host’s RNA polymerase transcribes the proviral DNA into RNA molecules The RNA molecules function both as mRNA for synthesis of viral proteins and as genomes for new virus particles released from the cell

Evolution of Viruses Viruses do not fit our definition of living organisms Since viruses can reproduce only within cells, they probably evolved as bits of cellular nucleic acid Candidates for the source of viral genomes are plasmids, circular DNA in bacteria and yeasts, and transposons, small mobile DNA segments Plasmids, transposons, and viruses are all mobile genetic elements

Viral Diseases in Animals Viruses may damage or kill cells by causing the release of hydrolytic enzymes from lysosomes Some viruses cause infected cells to produce toxins that lead to disease symptoms Others have envelope proteins that are toxic

Vaccines are harmless derivatives of pathogenic microbes that stimulate the immune system to mount defenses against the actual pathogen Vaccines can prevent certain viral illnesses Viral infections cannot be treated by antibiotics Antiviral drugs can help to treat, though not cure, viral infections

Viruses, viroids, and prions are formidable pathogens in animals and plants Diseases caused by viral infections affect humans, agricultural crops, and livestock worldwide Smaller, less complex entities called viroids and prions also cause disease in plants and animals, respectively

Viroids and prions Viroids: tiny, naked circular RNA that infect plants; do not code for proteins, but use cellular enzymes to reproduce; stunt plant growth Prions: “infectious proteins”; “mad cow disease”; trigger chain reaction conversions; a transmissible protein
