|
Single stranded RNA (-) strand
viruses Genome is the template from which mRNA is transcribed |

Stages of the viral life cycle
A. DNA viruses Step1 |
Attachment (virion-virulent viral particle)
|
|
step2
|
penetration (pinocytotic mechanism)
|
|
step3
|
uncoating (ion transport channels) and transfer of viral DNA to nucleus
|
|
step4
|
early transcription into viral mRNA
|
|
step5
|
early translation of viral mRNA into enzymes for viral DNA synthesis
|
|
step6
|
synthesis of viral DNA and late transcription of viral mRNA
|
|
step7
|
late translation of mRNA into viral structural protiens (interferons alpah, beta, gamma)
|
|
step8
|
assembly of virus particles in nucleus (genome encased by new capsid proteins)
|
|
step9
|
budding atom nucleus and release of virions (also by lysis)
|
|
Retrovirus stages
|
binding-> uncoating -> reverse transcriptase + RNASE (genomic RNA -> double stranded DNA) ->integration into cell nucleus->transcription to proviral RNA ->viral mRNA undergoes translation to form viral proteins or genomic RNA assembles into cell membrane -> release required by HIV protease
