    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_viruses

    Life-cycle of a typical virus (left to right); following infection of a cell by a single virus, hundreds of offspring are released. When a virus infects a cell, the virus forces it to make thousands more viruses. It does this by making the cell copy the virus's DNA or RNA, making viral proteins, which all assemble to form new virus particles. [37]

    The escape hypothesis did not explain the complex capsids and other structures on virus particles. The virus-first hypothesis contravened the definition of viruses in that they require host cells. [27]: 24 Viruses are now recognised as ancient and as having origins that pre-date the divergence of life into the three domains.

  4. Serial passage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_passage

    Serial passage is the process of growing bacteria or a virus in iterations. For instance, a virus may be grown in one environment, and then a portion of that virus population can be removed and put into a new environment.

    Often simply called an antiviral. A class of antimicrobial medication used specifically for treating diseases caused by viral infections rather than ones caused by bacteria or other infectious agents. Unlike most antibiotics, antivirals typically do not destroy their target viruses but instead inhibit their development. They are distinct from virucides. assembly The construction of the virus ...

    Assembled major coat protein subunits in Ff (fd, f1, M13) filamentous bacteriophage (genus Inovirus), exploded view. Filamentous phage virion--schematic views. Filamentous bacteriophages are among the simplest living organisms known, with far fewer genes than the classical tailed bacteriophages studied by the phage group in the mid-20th century.

  7. Effects of parasitic worms on the immune system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_parasitic_worms...

    The effects of parasitic worms, or helminths, on the immune system is a recently emerging topic of study among immunologists and other biologists. Experiments have involved a wide range of parasites, diseases, and hosts. The effects on humans have been of special interest.

  8. Comparison of computer viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_computer_viruses

    When a new virus appears, the rush begins to identify and understand it as well as develop appropriate counter-measures to stop its propagation. Along the way, a name is attached to the virus. Since anti-virus software compete partly based on how quickly they react to the new threat, they usually study and name the viruses independently.

  9. History of virology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_virology

    After tobacco mosaic was recognized as a virus disease, virus infections of many other plants were discovered. [34] The importance of tobacco mosaic virus in the history of viruses cannot be overstated. It was the first virus to be discovered, and the first to be crystallised and its structure shown in detail.
