19. General steps in viral replication cycles 1- Attachment, penetration and uncoating 2- Expression of viral genome and synthesis of viral components 3- Morphogenesis and release

20. Viral replication – basic principles Host cell genome replication Protein synthesis Virus release virus-assembly and maturation virus entry Uncoating Protein synthesis is directed exclusively by the cellular machinery

21. Attachment -The first step in infection of a cell is attachment to the cell surface, interaction of a virion which a specific receptor site on the surface on the cell. - Receptor molecules differ for different viruses but are generally glycoproteins. - In some cases : virus binds protein sequences (eg, picornaviruses) in others oligosaccharides (eg, orthomyxoviruses and paramyxoviruses Cell receptor Viral glycoproteins )

22. Penetration After binding, particle taken up inside the cell. Enveloped viruses (A) Entry by fusing with the plasma membrane. Some enveloped viruses fuse directly with the plasma membrane. Thus, the internal components of the virion are immediately delivered to the cytoplasm of the cell (B) Entry via endosomes at the cell surface. Some enveloped viruses require an acid pH for fusion to occur and are unable to fuse directly with the plasma membrane. Non-enveloped viruses Non-enveloped viruses may cross the plasma membrane directly or may be taken up into endosomes. They then cross (or destroy) the endosomal membrane

23. Uncoating, Expression of viral genome and synthesis of viral components - Uncoating is the physical separation of the viral nucleic acid from capsid - The infectivity of the parental virus is lost at the uncoating stage -Specific mRNAs must be transcribed from the viral nucleic acid for successful expression and duplication of genetic information. - Then, virus use cell components to translate the mRNA. Host cell genome replication Protein synthesis Uncoating

24. Morphogenesis and release -Newly synthesized viral genomes and capsid polypeptides assemble together to form progeny viruses. -Virus may be released due to cell lysis, or, if enveloped, may bud from the cell. Budding viruses and do not necessarily kill the cell. - Thus, some budding viruses may be able to set up persistent infections. - Icosahedral capsids can condense in the absence of nucleic acid - Nucleocapsids of viruses with helical symmetry cannot form without viral RNA Virus release virus-assembly and maturation
