  2. Mimiviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimiviridae

    Ultrastructure of Bodo saltans virus particles and its replication [ 18 ] Viruses in Mimiviridae have icosahedral and round geometries, with between T=972 and T=1141, or T=1200 symmetry. The diameter is around 400 nm, with a length of 125 nm.

  3. Viral replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_replication

    Viral replication is the formation of biological viruses during the infection process in the target host cells. Viruses must first get into the cell before viral replication can occur. Through the generation of abundant copies of its genome and packaging these copies, the virus continues infecting new hosts. Replication between viruses is ...

  4. Mimivirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimivirus

    The stages of mimivirus replication are not well known, but as a minimum it is known that mimivirus attaches to a chemical receptor on the surface of an amoeba cell and is taken into the cell. Once inside, an eclipse phase begins, in which the virus disappears and all appears normal within the cell. After about 4 hours small accumulations can ...

  5. Viral life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_life_cycle

    To enter the cells, proteins on the surface of the virus interact with proteins of the cell. Attachment, or adsorption, occurs between the viral particle and the host cell membrane. A hole forms in the cell membrane, then the virus particle or its genetic contents are released into the host cell, where replication of the viral genome may commence.

  6. Nucleocytoviricota - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleocytoviricota

    The Marseilleviridae viruses have double stranded DNA genomes that are about 368 kilobases long. Members of the family can have about 457 open reading frames (ORFs) in its genome. The host organisms are amoebae. Once it infects, viral replication takes place in virus factories in the cytoplasm.

  7. Viral pathogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_pathogenesis

    A viral infection does not always cause disease. A viral infection simply involves viral replication in the host, but disease is the damage caused by viral multiplication. [5] An individual who has a viral infection but does not display disease symptoms is known as a carrier. [17] Mechanisms by which viruses cause damage and disease to host cells

  9. Introduction to viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_viruses

    A virus with this "viral envelope" uses it—along with specific receptors—to enter a new host cell. Viruses vary in shape from the simple helical and icosahedral to more complex structures. Viruses range in size from 20 to 300 nanometres; it would take 33,000 to 500,000 of them, side by side, to stretch to 1 centimetre (0.4 in).
