|
the 2 major themes in virology? |
1 - viral genomes are obligate molecular parasites. They can only function after the replicate in a host cell 2 - Viruses must make mRNA that can be translated by host ribosomes.

who to tell that a viruses are doing to cells when cell fail to display cytopathic effects |
1 - measure infectivity - plaque assay after virus infection of bacteria - plaques: are where bacteria have been infected a) add virus b) overlay cells with a ager c) when infected cells release progeny; spread is halted by agar or stain plaque assay with crystal violet - stain cells that are alive particle-to-PFU ration: are all viral particles infectious? - #of virus particles/number of infectious particles (200 - for every virus only 1 infected) THE 3 ABOVE ARE MEASURE INFECTIVITY 2 - transformation assay cartain viruses do not form plaques but form foci - so count foci and get forming unit per/ml if we cannot measure infectivity using plaque assay or transformation assays we can use measure virus particles ----- measure virus particles after bursting a) Physical measurement: Hemaglutination assay - cartain viruses contain proteions that bind to red blood cells - coat the side of the tube b) viral enzyme activity: Retroviruses (such as HIV) captain active enzymes such as reverse transcriptase - open op virus and ass radioactively labeled ATPs c) Immunostaining - use direct or indirect immunustaining d) immunoblotting e) sequencing. useful for low viral abundance genes f) Flourescent proteins |
