degeneration of cells over time caused by viruses
cytopathic effect
cytopathic effect
degeneration of cells over time caused by viral infection.
newly isolated cell line is called what?

Four methods for identifying viruses
Cytopathic Effects, Serological Tests, RFLPs, PCR
CE,ST,RF...,P...
Viruses have a lot or few replication genes?
just a few
eclipse period
period during which viruses are multiplying in cells and active virii not in the system
which viral activity cycle results in the death of the cell?
lytic cycle
which cycle doesn't kill the cell as long as nothing goes wrong?
lysogenic cycle
steps of lytic cycle (5)
Attachment, Penetration, Biosynthesis, Maturation, Release
A,P,B,M,R
Steps of lysogenic cycle
repressors bind and block transcription of other phages, prophage DNA incorporated in host DNA, phage conversion, Transduction of the specialized or generalized sort
Steps of transduction (general, 5)
1.phage infects donor cell
2. phage DNA/proteins made, bacterial chromosome broken.
3. Sometimes, bacterial DNA packaged in phage capsid. Donor cell lyses and releases phage particles containing bacterial DNA.
4.Phage-carrying bacterial DNA infects a new host cell.
5. Recombination can occur, producing recombinant child cell.
Specialized transduction
Prophage exists in galactose-using host containing gal gene
-phage genome excises, carrying with it the adjacent gai gene
-phage infects a cell that lacks -gai gene and can't use galactose
-prophage and gai gene become integrated into host's DNA
what is the result o fspecialized transduction?
the host cell can use galactose
which cycle actually gives something to the host cell rather than killing it?
lysogenic cycle
6 steps-multiplication of animal viruses
1.attachment 2.penetration 3.uncoating 4. biosynthesis 5. maturation 6. release
7 steps multiplication of DNA virus
virion attaches to host cell
2.virion enters cell, DNA uncoated
3.portion of viral DNA is transcribed, producing mRNA
4.Viral DNA replicated, viral proteins made.
5.Late translation; capsid proteins synthesized.
