12
Viral Characteristics Acellular Infectious Phases Extracellular Intracellular Viron structure Nucelocapsid Capsid NA +/- Envelope
13
Viral Morphology Size 10-400 nm Structural components Nucleocapsid Envelope (+/-) Classifications NA ss or ds
14
Size
15
Viral Capsid Function Protect NA Aids in transfer to host Structure Protein coat Capsomere arrange Helical Polyhedral Complex
16
Polyhedral Capsids
17
Capsomeres are capsid subunits
18
Naked vs. Enveloped Viruses
19
Viral Envelope Presence Enveloped Naked (non-enveloped) Location Surrounds capsid Source Host plasma membrane Nuclear membrane Endoplasmic reticulum Components Phospholipid Proteins Glycoprotein spikes (+/-) Examples Influenza Rabies Herpes HIV
