VIRAL GENETICS
“DNA chromosomes of eukaryotic host organisms generally require geologic time
spans to evolve to the degree that their RNA viruses can achieve in a single human
generation.”

VIRAL GENETICS
• VIRUSES GROW RAPIDLY
• A SINGLE PARTICLE PRODUCES A LOT OF PROGENY
• DNA VIRUSES SEEM TO HAVE ACCESS TO PROOF READING, RNA VIRUSES DO NOT SEEM TO

NATURE OF GENOMES
• RNA or DNA
• SEGMENTED OR NON-SEGMENTED

GENETIC CHANGE
• MUTATION
• RECOMBINATION

ORIGIN OF MUTATIONS
• SPONTANEOUS– tautomeric form of bases– polymerase errors
![Page 7: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Tautomeric forms of bases
most of time rarely
![Page 8: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

ORIGIN OF MUTATIONS
• SPONTANEOUS– tautomeric form of bases– polymerase errors
why do some viruses seem to alter very little, even though one would expect high mutation rates?
mutation rates usually higher in RNA viruses (lack of proof reading)

ORIGIN OF MUTATIONS
• SPONTANEOUS• PHYSICALLY INDUCED
–UV light , especially problem if no access to repair
–X-rays • CHEMICALLY INDUCED

TYPES OF MUTATION
• POINT
•INSERTION
•DELETION

PHENOTYPES
PHENOTYPE
– the observed properties of an organism
![Page 13: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
PHENOTYPIC CHANGES
• CONDITIONAL LETHAL - multiply under some conditions but not others - wild-type (wt) grows under both sets of conditions
• temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants do not grow at higher temperature (altered protein)
• host-range mutants do not grow in all the cell types that the wt does
![Page 14: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
PHENOTYPIC CHANGES
• PLAQUE SIZE– may show altered pathogenicity
• DRUG RESISTANCE– important in the development of antiviral agents
• ENZYME-DEFICIENT MUTANTS– some genes can be ‘optional’ in certain
circumstances
![Page 15: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
PHENOTYPIC CHANGES
• “HOT MUTANTS”– grow better at elevated temperature than wt– less susceptible to host fever response
• ATTENUATED MUTANTS– milder (or no) symptoms– vaccine development– pathogenesis

RECOMBINATION
Exchange of information between two genomes
![Page 18: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Other methods recombination
• Take advantage quirks in virus replication
– eg. Coronaviruses (include SARS virus)

REASSORTMENT
![Page 30: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
REASSORTMENT
• form of recombination (non classical)
• very efficient
• segmented viruses only– can occur naturally
• used in some new vaccines– eg for influenza and rotaviruses

INFLUENZA VIRUS

32
NON-SEGMENTED NEGATIVE STRAND RNA VIRUSES
• no classical recombination
• no copy choice
• no reassortment
– least ability to exchange genetic material
![Page 33: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

34
COMPLEMENTATIONInteraction at the functional level, NOT the nucleic
acid level
mutants which can complement are generally in different genes
Progeny virus assembled using wt N and wt M proteins
Genomes in progeny are either ts M or ts N
ts mutant 1 ts mutant 2

35
DEFECTIVE VIRUSES
• lack gene(s) necessary for a complete infectious cycle
• ‘helper’ virus provides missing functions
package me! copy me!
package me! copy me!

36
DEFECTIVE VIRUSES
• some examples of defective viruses
– some retroviruses (use related helper)
– hepatitis delta virus (uses unrelated helper)
![Page 37: Viral Genetics](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052411/55644f8ed8b42ad6268b5083/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
DEFECTIVE INTERFERING (DI) VIRUSES (PARTICLES)
• decrease replication of helper virus
– compete for viral precursors, etc.
• may modulate wt infections
• occur naturally eg. DI measles virus in
subacute scelerosing panencephalitis - SSPE

PHENOTYPIC MIXING
no changes in genome
possibly altered host range
possibly resistant to antibody neutralization
