Presentation transcript:

Virus Structure and Method of Invasion Higher Biology

Introduction to viruses Obligate parasites Specific to type of cells they target -poliomylelitis virus attacks nerve cells -hepatitis virus attacks liver cells Reproduction is their only true characteristic of being alive Much smaller than bacteria (20-300nm)

Viral Structure Not a cell! DNA or RNA (retrovirus) Surrounded by protective protein coat (capsid) Genetic material carries information for multiplication Hijacks biochemical machinery of host cell to carry these processes out

Bacteriophage

Invasion of a cell by a virus Virus can lie dormant for many years until it comes into contact with a suitable host cell Binds with molecules on surface of host cell Herpes -whole virus enters cell Bacteriophage -viral DNA injected via hollow tail

Alteration of Cell Instruction Virus takes control of cell machinery Depends on host for -ATP -supply of free nucleotides Virus suppresses cell’s normal nucleic acid replication and protein synthesis Manufactures many identical copies of viral nucleic acid and protein coats

New viral particles become assembled and become released by: 1.Lysis -viral nucleic acid used to synthesise lysis enzymes -bursting of host cell to release viral particles OR 2.Buds contaning virus are formed

Retrovirus Contains RNA No DNA to transcribe into mRNA Reverse transcriptase injected into cell by virus with RNA -enzyme reverses normal transcription -Produces viral DNA from RNA -Virus uses DNA to replicate
