Eukaryotic Viruses
Taxonomy characters:
• nucleic acid type;
• enveloped or naked;
• capsid shape;
• assembly site in host (nucleus or cytoplasm)
![Page 2: Eukaryotic Viruses](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062322/568143a0550346895db02081/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Attachment and Penetration:Attachment phase is conceptually similar to phage.
Penetration can be very different (capsid may enter).

Enveloped virus fusing with endosome membrane for release of capsid.
NOTE: in both mechanisms the nucleic acid is “uncoated”, i.e. capsid disassembles.

Orthomyxoviruses (Influenza Virus):
• Attachment and penetration by endocytosis, then -ssRNA is uncoated.
• Unique for RNA viruses to replicate in the nucleus; Uses RdRp to make +ssRNA then to –ssRNA.
• Needs a capped primer (C) for mRNA synthesis and ribosome recognition; steals C from host mRNA at 5’end.
• Viral envelope proteins transported from RER to GA to plasma membrane; others associate with –ssRNA to form nucleocapsid. Budding release (below):

Infection Types and Outcomes• Acute versus Persistent Infections:
– Chronic (replicates at low levels & constant yet mild symptoms)– Latent (stops reproduction after initial infection; goes dormant until
induced to activate replication again)– Slow (vary slow replication and spread; years before symptoms)
• Cytocidal effects (death) and cell damage:– Inhibit host macromolecule synthesis– Lysosome malfunction (host cell self digests)– Plasma membrane abnormalities– Direct viral protein toxicity– Protein aggregation (inclusion bodies)– Host cell changes to a malignant cell (cancer)
• Tumors form by neoplasia and anaplasa; may spread by metastasis.• Virus may carry oncogenes (genes for various cancer causing protein).• Viral promotors may insert and turn on expression of host oncogenes.• 8 cancers involving viruses: Burkitt’s lymphoma and nasopharyngeal
carcinoma (Epstein-Barr virus); cervical cancer (papillomavirus); Kaposi’s sarcoma (herpes 8), Hepatitis B & C, T-cell and hairy-cell leukemias, Rous sarcoma.
