Resumo de Recurso

Questão Responda
Virus Type Enveloped, with glycoprotein spikes
Virus Shape Icosahedral
Primary Infection (Children/Young Adults) Mild to extensive lesions on the mouth and lips
Secondary Infection/Recurrence Repeated cold sores in the same place
Genome Ds, with both strands coding
Genes 20% unique to HSV1, and created by differential splicing
Gene Control/Life Cycle Have latent & lytic cycles depending on the nuclear environment
Location of Replication Nucleus
Productive/Lytic Cycle- Location Infects host skin cells
Lytic Genome Cycle Alpha-T/F activates early genes in a specific sequence using host polymerase
Lytic Cycle- Gene Expression Wave 1 Alpha, in the 'Early Intermediate' Stage (these genes continue production throughout later stages)
Lytic Cycle- Gene Expression Wave 2 Beta, in the 'Early' Stage (these genes continue production throughout later stages)
Lytic Cycle- Gene Expression Wave 3 Gamma, in the 'Late' Stage
Latent Cycle Location Neurones near initial infection site
Latent Cycle Genome Genome is packaged rapidly in host cell chromatin and silenced
No of Origins of Replication Three (of lytic replication) but only uses one
Replication of HSV1- Bases in Origin Rich in A-T to make replication easier
Replication of HSV1- Ori Protein Ori Binding Protein binds to specific elements for unwinding
Replication of HSV1- Helicase Primase Starts replication before DNA polymerase takes over
Replication In Cells In cells that aren't replicating
Replication of HSV1- DNA Length DNA several genomes long is made, then cut into individual genomes for virions
Replication of HSV1- DNA Shape Initially linear, then becomes circular
Assembly Self folding proteins form capsule, which are then cleaved so DNA can enter
Antivirals Acyclovar
Acyclovar Activation Works by P drug inside viral enzymes, which traps it in cells so cell can add two more P
Acyclovar Role Blocks DNA synthesis, inhibits viral DNA polymerase
A1C316 Inhibit Helicase/Primase Inhibitor that prevents the production of short primers for replication
Bicyclic Nucleotide Analogues Inhibits polymerase in VZV (Chicken pox)
