  9. Chapter Intro-page 474 What You’ll Learn You will identify the structures and characteristics of viruses and bacteria. You will explain how viruses and bacteria reproduce. You will recognize the medical and economic importance of viruses and bacteria.

  10. 18.1 Section Objectives – page 475 Section Objectives: • Identify the different kinds of viruses and their structures. • Compare and contrast the replication cycles of viruses.

  11. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 What is a virus? • You’ve probably had the flu—influenza—at some time during your life. • Nonliving particles called viruses cause influenza. • Viruses are nonliving particles composed of nucleic acids enclosed in a protein coat and are smaller than the smallest bacterium.

  12. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 What is a virus? • Most biologists consider viruses to be nonliving because they don’t exhibit all the criteria for life. • They don’t carry out respiration, grow, or develop. All viruses can do is replicate—make copies of themselves—and they can’t even do that without the help of living cells. • A cell in which a virus replicates is called the host cell.

  13. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 What is a virus? • Viruses, such as rabies viruses and polioviruses, were named after the diseases they cause. • Other viruses were named for the organ or tissue they infect. • They do not get Latin names because they • are nonliving.

  14. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 What is a virus? • Today, most viruses are given a genus name ending in the word “virus” and a species name. • However, sometimes scientists use code numbers to distinguish among similar viruses that infect the same host. • A virus that infects a bacterium is called a bacteriophage (bak TIHR ee uh fayj), or phage for short.

  15. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure • A virus has an inner core of nucleic acid, either RNA or DNA, and an outer protein coat called a capsid. Capsid Nucleic acid Envelope

  16. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure • Some relatively large viruses, such as human flu viruses, may have an additional layer, called an envelope, surrounding their capsids. Capsid Nucleic acid Envelope

  17. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure • Envelopes are composed primarily of the same materials found in the plasma membranes of all cells. Capsid Nucleic acid Envelope

  18. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure Nucleic acid • Viral nucleic acid is either DNA or RNA and contains instructions ONLY for making copies of the virus. Capsid • Some viruses have only four genes, while others have hundreds.

  19. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure Nucleic acid • The tobacco mosaic virus has a long, narrow helical shape. Capsid

  20. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure • The arrangement of proteins in the capsid of a virus determines the virus’s shape. Capsid Nucleic acid • Polyhedral viruses resemble small crystals.

  21. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Structure • The protein arrangement also plays a role in determining what cell can be infected and how the virus infects the cell. Capsid Nucleic acid

  22. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Attachment to a host cell • Before a virus can replicate, it must enter a host cell. • A virus recognizes and attaches to a host cell when one of its proteins interlocks with a molecular shape that is the receptor site on the host cell’s plasma membrane.

  23. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Attachment to a host cell • A protein in the tail fibers of the bacteriophage T4 recognizes and attaches the T4 to its bacterial host cell. Capsid Nucleic acid Tail Tail fiber

  24. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Attachment to a host cell Capsid • In other viruses, the attachment protein is in the capsid or in the envelope. Nucleic acid Tail Tail fiber

  25. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Attachment is a specific process • Each virus has a specifically shaped attachment protein. Therefore, each virus can usually attach to only a few kinds of cells. • In general, viruses are species specific, and some also are cell-type specific. For example, polio viruses normally infect only intestinal and nerve cells.

  26. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Attachment is a specific process • The species specific characteristic of viruses is significant for controlling the spread of viral diseases.

  27. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Replication Cycles • Once attached to the plasma membrane of the host cell, the virus enters the cell and takes over its metabolism. • Only then can the virus replicate. • Viruses have two ways of getting into host cells.

  28. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Replication Cycles • The virus may inject its nucleic acid into the host cell like a syringe injects a vaccine into your arm. • The capsid of the virus stays attached to the outside of the host cell. • An enveloped virus enters a host cell in a different way.

  29. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Viral Replication Cycles • After attachment by these enveloped viruses, the plasma membrane of the host cell surrounds the virus and produces a virus-filled vacuole inside the host cell’s cytoplasm. • Then, the virus bursts out of the vacuole and releases its nucleic acid into the cell.

  30. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lytic cycle • Once inside the host cell, a virus’s genes are expressed and the substances that are produced take over the host cell’s genetic material. • The viral genes alter the host cell to make new viruses.

  31. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lytic cycle Bacteriophage Bacterial DNA Nucleic acid Bacterial host cell B. Entry A. Attachment The bacteriophage injects its nucleic acid into the bacterial cell. E. Lysis and Release The host cell breaks open and releases new virus particles. C. Replication D. Assembly The host’s metabolic machinery makes viral nucleic acid and proteins. New virus particles are assembled.

  32. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lytic cycle • The host cell uses its own enzymes, raw materials, and energy to make copies of viral genes that along with viral proteins are assembled into new viruses, which burst from the host cell, killing it.

  33. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lytic cycle • The new viruses can then infect and kill other host cells. This process is called a lytic (LIH tik) cycle. Click image to play movie

  34. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lysogenic cycle • Not all viruses kill the cells they infect. • Some viruses go through a lysogenic cycle, a replication cycle in which the virus’s nucleic acid is integrated into the host cell’s chromosome. Click image to play movie

  35. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lysogenic cycle • A lysogenic cycle begins in the same way as a lytic cycle. • However, in a lysogenic cycle, instead of immediately taking over the host’s genetic material, the viral DNA is integrated into the host cell’s chromosome.

  36. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Lysogenic cycle

  37. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Disease symptoms of proviruses • Many disease-causing viruses have lysogenic cycles. However, when in the lysogenic cycle, there are no symptoms of the disease. It’s like a dormant stage. • Three examples of these viruses are herpes simplex I (causes cold sores), herpes simplex II that causes genital herpes, and the hepatitis B virus that causes hepatitis B.

  38. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Disease symptoms of proviruses • When a cold sore is present, the virus is in the lytic cycle. When the cold sore disappears, the virus is in the lysogenic cycle. • Another lysogenic virus is the one that causes chicken pox.

  39. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Disease symptoms of proviruses • Having chicken pox, which usually occurs before age ten, gives lifelong protection from another infection by the virus. However, some chicken pox viruses may remain as proviruses in some of your body’s nerve cells.

  40. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Disease symptoms of proviruses • Later in your life, these proviruses may enter a lytic cycle and cause a disease called shingles—a painful infection of some nerve cells.

  41. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Release of viruses • Either lysis, the bursting of a cell, or exocytosis, the active transport process by which materials are expelled from a cell, release new viruses from the host cell.

  42. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Release of viruses • In exocytosis, a newly produced virus approaches the inner surface of the host cell’s plasma membrane. • The plasma membrane surrounds the virus, enclosing it in a vacuole that then fuses with the host cell’s plasma membrane. • Then, the viruses are released to the outside.

  43. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 HIV: An infection of white blood cells • Once inside a human host, HIV infects white blood cells. Normal white blood cells • Newly made viruses are released into the blood stream by exocytosis and infect other white blood cells.

  44. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 HIV: An infection of white blood cells • Infected host cells still function normally because the viral genetic material is a provirus that produces only a small number of new viruses at a time. • Because the infected cells are still able to function normally, an infected person may not appear sick, but they can still transmit the virus in their body fluids.

  45. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 HIV: An infection of white blood cells • Most people with an HIV infection eventually get AIDS because, over time, more white blood cells are infected and produce new viruses. • Because white blood cells are part of a body’s disease-fighting system, their destruction interferes with the body’s ability to protect itself from organisms that cause disease, a symptom of AIDS.

  46. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Retroviruses • Many viruses, such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes the disease AIDS, are RNA viruses—RNA being their only nucleic acid. HIV virus

  47. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Retroviruses

  48. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Cancer and Viruses • Some viruses have been linked to certain cancers in humans and animals (Human papilloma virus – HPV- cervical cancer). • These viruses disrupt the normal growth and division of cells in a host, causing abnormal growth and creating tumors.

  49. Section 18.1 Summary – pages 475-483 Plant viruses • The first virus to be identified was a plant virus, called tobacco mosaic virus, that causes disease in tobacco plants. Tobacco mosaic virus causes yellow spots on tobacco leaves, making them unmarketable.
