its tail fibers to bind to specific
receptor sites on the outer
surface of an E. coli cell.

Release. The phage directs production
of an enzyme that damages the bacterial
cell wall, allowing fluid to enter. The cell
swells and finally bursts, releasing 100
to 200 phage particles.
Entry of phage DNA
and degradation of host DNA.
The sheath of the tail contracts,
injecting the phage DNA into
the cell and leaving an empty
capsid outside. The cell’s
DNA is hydrolyzed.

Head
Tails
Tail fibers
Assembly. Three separate sets of proteins
self-assemble to form phage heads, tails,
and tail fibers. The phage genome is
packaged inside the capsid as the head forms.

Synthesis of viral genomes
and proteins. The phage DNA
directs production of phage
proteins and copies of the phage
genome by host enzymes, using
components within the cell.
The lytic and lysogenic cycles of phage  , a
temperate phage
Phage
DNA
The phage attaches to a
host cell and injects its DNA.
Many cell divisions
produce a large
population of bacteria
infected with the
prophage.

circularizes
Phage
Occasionally, a prophage
exits the bacterial chromosome,
initiating a lytic cycle.

Prophage
The bacterium reproduces
normally, copying the prophage
and transmitting it to daughter cells.
Phage DNA integrates into
the bacterial chromosome,
becoming a prophage.
Bacterial Defense
• What defense do bacteria have against phage
infection?
• Restriction enzymes
• What do restirciton enzymes do?
• They cut up DNA The bacterial DNA is
modified to protect it from the restriction
endonucleases.
12
Herpesvirus
• Consists of double stranded DNA
• Envelope derived from host cell nuclear
envelope not from plasma membrane
• It, therefore, reproduces within the nucleus
• May integrate its DNA as a provirus
• Tends to recur throughout lifetime of infected
individual.
• Why do you think your immune system never
removes this virus from your body?

SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), a recently
emerging viral disease
(a) Young ballet students in Hong Kong
wear face masks to protect themselves
from the virus causing SARS.
(b) The SARS-causing agent is a coronavirus
like this one (colorized TEM), so named for the
“corona” of glycoprotein spikes protruding from
the envelope.

RNA Viruses
• Different classes of RNA viruses: single
stranded range from class IV to class VI
• Class IV: invades as mRNA, is ready for
translation
• Clas V: RNA serves as template for mRNA
synthesis
• RNA is transcribed and serves as template for
mRNA and genomic RNA
• Viral replicase enzyme is packages within
viral capsid.

Vaccines / Drugs
• What are vaccines and how do they work?
• Introduce body to harmless or weakened
strain of the virus, so that your immune
system learns to recognize the virus prior to
invasion
• Few drugs around to fight viruses, most
interfere with DNA, RNA or protein synthesis
24
Viroids and Prions
• Viroids are naked circular RNA that
infect plants
• Prions are proteins that infect cells
• Examples of prions seen in scrapies in
sheep, mad-cow disease, and
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans
• How can a prion spread infection?
• Altered versions of proteins that can
alter other proteins
