3. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Overview: A Borrowed Life  A virus is an infectious particle consisting of little more than genes packaged into a protein coat  Viruses lead “a kind of borrowed life,” existing in a shady area between life-forms and chemicals

5. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Viral Genomes  Viral genomes may consist of either  Double- or single-stranded DNA, or  Double- or single-stranded RNA  Depending on its type of nucleic acid, a virus is called a DNA virus or an RNA virus

6. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Capsids and Envelopes  A capsid is the protein shell that encloses the viral genome  Capsids are built from protein subunits called capsomeres  A capsid can have various structures

14. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Some viruses have membranous envelopes that help them infect hosts  These viral envelopes are derived from the host cell’s membrane and contain a combination of viral and host cell molecules

15. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bacteriophages, also called phages, are viruses that infect bacteria  They have the most complex capsids found among viruses  Phages have an elongated capsid head that encloses their DNA  A protein tail piece attaches the phage to the host and injects the phage DNA inside

16. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Concept 17.2: Viruses replicate only in host cells  Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, which means they can replicate only within a host cell  Each virus has a host range, a limited number of host cells that it can infect

18. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The Lytic Cycle  The lytic cycle is a phage replicative cycle that culminates in the death of the host cell  The lytic cycle produces new phages and lyses (breaks open) the host’s cell wall, releasing the progeny viruses  = virulent Animation: Phage T4 Lytic Cycle

24. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The Lysogenic Cycle  The lysogenic cycle replicates the phage genome without destroying the host  Phages that use both the lytic and lysogenic cycles are called temperate phages

25. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Lysogenic Life cycle  The viral DNA molecule is incorporated into the host cell’s chromosome  This integrated viral DNA is known as a prophage

26. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Every time the host divides, it copies the phage DNA and passes the copies to daughter cells  A single infected cell can give rise to a large population of bacteria carrying the virus in prophage form  An environmental signal can trigger the virus genome to exit the bacterial chromosome and switch to the lytic mode Animation: Phage Lysogenic and Lytic Cycles

30. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Replicative Cycles of Animal Viruses  There are two key variables used to classify viruses that infect animals  The nature of the viral genome (single- or double- stranded DNA or RNA)  The presence or absence of an envelope

31. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Viral Envelopes  An animal virus with an envelope uses it to enter the host cell  The envelope is derived from the plasma membrane of a host cell, although some of the molecules on the envelope are specified by the genome of the virus

33. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. RNA as Viral Genetic Material  The broadest variety of RNA genomes is found in viruses that infect animals  Retroviruses use reverse transcriptase to copy their RNA genome into DNA  HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is the retrovirus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)

34. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Viral DNA that is integrated into the host genome is called a provirus  Unlike a prophage, a provirus is a permanent resident of the host cell  The host’s RNA polymerase transcribes the proviral DNA into RNA molecules  The RNA molecules function both as mRNA for synthesis of viral proteins and as genomes for new viruses released from the cell Animation: HIV Replicative Cycle

45. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Evolution of Viruses  Viruses do not fit our definition of living organisms  Since viruses can replicate only within cells, they probably evolved after the first cells appeared  Candidates for the source of viral genomes are plasmids (circular DNA in bacteria and yeasts) and transposons (small mobile DNA segments)  Plasmids, transposons, and viruses are all mobile genetic elements

46. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Concept 17.3: Viruses are formidable pathogens in animals and plants  Diseases caused by viral infections afflict humans, agricultural crops, and livestock worldwide

47. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Viral Diseases in Animals  Viruses may damage or kill cells by causing the release of hydrolytic enzymes from lysosomes  Some viruses cause infected cells to produce toxins that lead to disease symptoms  Others have molecular components such as envelope proteins that are toxic

48. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  A vaccine is a harmless derivative of a pathogen that stimulates the immune system to mount defenses against the harmful pathogen  Vaccines can prevent certain viral illnesses  Viral infections cannot be treated by antibiotics  Antiviral drugs can help to treat, though not cure, viral infections

49. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Emerging Viruses  Viruses that suddenly become apparent are called emerging viruses  HIV is a classic example  The West Nile virus appeared in North America first in 1999 and has now spread to all 48 contiguous states

50. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  In 2009 a general outbreak, or epidemic, of a flu- like illness occurred in Mexico and the United States; the virus responsible was named H1N1  H1N1 spread rapidly, causing a pandemic, or global epidemic

53. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 17.8b (b) 2009 pandemic screening

54. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Three processes contribute to the emergence of viral diseases  The mutation of existing viruses, which is especially high in RNA viruses  Dissemination of a viral disease from a small, isolated human population, allowing the disease to go unnoticed before it begins to spread  Spread of existing viruses from animal populations; about three-quarters of new human diseases originate this way

55. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Strains of influenza A are given standardized names  The name H1N1 identifies forms of two viral surface proteins, hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N)  There are numerous types of hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, identified by numbers

56. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Viral Diseases in Plants  More than 2,000 types of viral diseases of plants are known; these have enormous impacts on the agricultural and horticultural industries  Plant viruses have the same basic structure and mode of replication as animal viruses  Most plant viruses known thus far have an RNA genome and many have a helical capsid

57. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.  Plant viral diseases spread by two major routes  Infection from an external source of virus is called horizontal transmission  Herbivores, especially insects, pose a double threat because they can both carry a virus and help it get past the plant’s outer layer of cells  Inheritance of the virus from a parent is called vertical transmission
