Presentation Transcript

  1. Virology

  2. Viral Structure • Nucleic Acid • DNA or RNA • Capsid (protein coat)

  3. Viral Structure • Envelope • Forms when virus takes host membrane with it upon release

  4. Are Viruses Alive?

  5. How Virulent Viruses Work • Attachment • Entry • Replication • Assembly • Release (Lysis) Lytic Cycle

  6. How Temperate Viruses Work • Attachment • Entry • Lysogeny • Replication • Assembly • Release (Lysis) Lysogenic Cycle

  7. Viral Pathology • Influenza • Respiratory tract • Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome • Attacks immune system leaving victim vulnerable • Cancer • Some viruses mutate DNA to upset cell cycle

  8. Treatment • Vaccines • Virus unable to replicate in host • Antiviral Drugs • Inhibit nucleic acid synthesis • Inhibit capsid synthesis
