1 BACTERIUM AND VIRUS IMAGES

2 Colour-enhanced electron micrograph of norovirus, known as the ‘winter vomiting bug’. The virus particles are 27–38 nanometres in diameter. Credit: David Gregory & Debbie Marshall/Wellcome Images Norovirus

3 Colour-enhanced transmission electron micrograph of a brain-cell nucleus being overrun with replicating measles virus. Encephalitis (brain inflammation) occurs in 1 in 1,000 cases of measles. Credit: Mike Kayser/Wellcome Images BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM Measles in a brain cell

4 Scanning electron micrograph of a colony of Helicobacter, the bacterium that causes most stomach ulcers. Credit: David Gregory & Debbie Marshall/Wellcome Images. BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM Helicobacter bacteria

5 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) virions (blue) budding from the surface of a T cell (a type of lymphocyte). The viruses replicate inside the cell, with the different components gathering at the cell membrane to be assembled into new virus particles.

6 Influenza viruses (blue) attaching to the cells of the upper respiratory tract. Viruses floating in the air are breathed in and bind to the hair-like microvilli and cilia on the surface of the cells that line the trachea. They then enter the cells and start to proliferate, eventually causing the cells to die. Credit: R Dourmashkin/Wellcome Images BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM Influenza virus infecting cells

7 Clusters of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. Credit: Annie Cavanagh/Wellcome Images BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM MRSA

8 A lesion in human cervical epithelium infected with human papilloma virus (HPV16). Early viral proteins (green) bind to and reorganise the keratin filaments (red) towards the edge of the cell. Cell nuclei are stained blue. Credit: MRC NIMR/Wellcome Images BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM HPV in cervical epithelium

9 A model of the H1N1 virus, which causes ‘swine flu’. The name H1N1 refers to the types of haemagglutinin and neuraminidase proteins on the surface of the virus. There are roughly ten times as many haemagglutinin proteins (red) as neuraminidase (yellow). In the centre is the single-stranded viral RNA (purple).

10 Illustration of the structure of a single Ebola virus particle. The Ebola virus belongs to the Filoviridae family of viruses and causes Ebola virus disease (also known as Ebola haemorrhagic fever) in humans. A. Viral protein VP40; B. Viral protein VP24; C. Nucleoprotein, encapsulating viral RNA; D. Minor nucleoprotein VP30, E. Surface glycoprotein Credit: Pete Jeffs/Wellcome Images BIGPICTUREEDUCATION.COM Ebola virus structure
