Viral structure, classification and replication Deborah E. Sullivan, Ph.D. Department of Microbiology and Immunology

The number of viruses on Earth is staggering

What is a virus? A virus is a small infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of other organisms.

Viruses vary in size

Herpesvirus Hepatitis B virus Adenovirus Poliovirus Influenza virus Pox virus Papilloma virus Rotavirus SARS virus What do viruses look like?

All Viruses follow this three-part strategy…. 1.They have a nucleic acid genome packaged in a proteinaceous particle – This particle is the vehicle for transmission of the viral genome from host to host – The particle is a delivery device, but it is not alive 2.The viral genome contains the information to initiate and complete an infectious cycle within a susceptible and permissive cell An infectious cycle allows attachment and entry of the particle, decoding of genome information, translation of viral mRNA by host ribosomes, genome replication, assembly and release of particles containing the genome. 3.All viral genomes are able to establish themselves in a host population This three-part strategy achieves one goal: SURVIVAL
