1 1 VIRUSES CHAPTER 10

2 2 What are Viruses? Obligate intracellular parasites Viral components –Nucleic acids –Capsid (protein) –Envelope (Lipid w/intg proteins)

3 3 4 overall types of viruses 1) bacteriophages - almost always DNA with a protein capsid. Lytic and lysogenic types 2) DNA viruses of Eukaryotes - often have phospholipid envelope outside of capsid 3) RNA viruses - have RNA as genetic material. Often hypermutable 4) RNA retroviruses - have reverse transcriptase. Many can integrate into host chromosome

4 4 Viral Shapes and Sizes Helical Icosahedral T4 and adenovirus TMV, M13

5 5 Some viruses T-even HIV lambda

6 6 Infectious Properties Viral Host range Viral specificity Viral Origins Depends on target receptor Selfish DNA? Transposable elements

7 7 Bacteriophage Most diverse?

8 8 Bacteriophages Plaque counts

9 9 Bacteriophages Replication

10 10 Bacteriophage = Virus that attacks bacteria and replicates by invading a living cell and using the cell’s molecular machinery. Structure of T2 phage DNA & protein Hershey-Chase Bacteriophage Experiment - 1953

11 11 Fig. 2.5: Life cycle of virulent T2 phage: Lytic cyle

12 12 1.T2 bacteriophage is composed of DNA and proteins: 2.Set-up two replicates: Label DNA with 32 P Label Protein with 35 S 3.Infected E. coli bacteria with two types of labeled T2 4. 32 P is discovered within the bacteria and progeny phages, whereas 35 S is not found within the bacteria but released with phage ghosts.

15 15 Bacteriophages

16 16 Lytic Phage Multiplication Cycle Eclipse –Early genes –Phage DNA synthesis –Late genes Intracellular accumulation Lysis and Release Total Phage Extracellular Phage Eclipse Intracellular accumulation phase Time after Infection Number of Infectious Particles Lysis

17 17 Assay for Lytic Phage Plaque assay –Method –Plaque forming unit (pfu) –Measures infectious particles Bacteria Phage + Phage

18 18 Lytic vs Lysogenic Cycle? Role of repressor Role of cro gene product Role of proteases Lytic = copies and immediately lyses Lysogenic = integrates into host chromosome “Prophage” = the latent form of phage where viral genome is incorporated into host genome

19 19 Bacteriophages Lysogenic Lysogeny

Replication cycle requires 25 minutes 2. Genome is linear double-stranded DNA of 39,737 bp 3. T7 encodes all of its own proteins for DNA replication and transcription 4. Time to complete 100 T7 genome copies from a single copy: 5 minutes 5. Burst size (Escherichia coli host): about 300 virions/cell 6. Head size, 45 nm 7. Forms large plaques 8. T7 promoters are unique and widely used in biotechnology 8

22 22 Events Leading to Lysogeny Site-specific recombination –Phage coded enzyme Repression of the phage genome – Repressor protein – Specific – Immunity to superinfection gal bio gal bio gal bio

24 24 Significance of Lysogeny Model for animal virus transformation Lysogenic or phage conversion –Definition: A change in the phenotype of a bacterial cell as a consequence of lysogeny Modification of Salmonella O antigen Toxin production by Corynebacterium diphtheriae

25 25 Types of Bacteriophage Lysogenic or temperate phage: Phage that can either multiply via the lytic cycle or enter a quiescent state in the bacterial cell. (e.g.,  ) –Expression of most phage genes repressed –Prophage –Lysogen

26 26 Viruses part II - Animals and Plants Unique challenges. Must evade immune systems and must cross 2 lipid bilayer barriers. (ie cross into nucleus)

27 27 RNA Viruses Chromosomal Arrangements – + strand (directly transcribed) – – strand – Double strand
