HIV Structure and Function Background: Basic Virology and Pathogenesis Structure: Virion structure, genomic structure, and accessory molecules Lifecycle: Infection and Expression Viruses Microscopic infectious agents that can infect the cells of a biological organism. Viruses can only replicate themselves by infecting a host cell and are incapable to reproduce on their own. A complete viral particle, known as a virion consists of nucleic acid surrounded by a protective coat of protein called a capsid. Types of Viruses (Baltimore Classification) I: Double-stranded DNA (Adenoviruses; Herpesviruses; Poxviruses, etc) Herpesviridae (Herpes, CMV, EBV), Poxviridae (Smallpox, Chickenpox, Vaccinia), Papilloma virus, Adenovirus II: Single-stranded (+) sense DNA (Parvoviruses) Erythema infectiosum, Phages III: Double-stranded RNA (Reoviruses; Birnaviruses) Rotavirus, Reovirus IV: Single-stranded (+) sense RNA (Picornaviruses; Togaviruses, etc) Polio, SARS, Hep A, Hep C, Rubella, Yellow fever V: Single-stranded (-) sense RNA (Orthomyxoviruses, Rhabdoviruses, etc) Rubella, Influenza, Rabies, Measles, Mumps, Ebola VI: Single-stranded (+) sense RNA with DNA intermediate (Retroviruses) HTLV, HIV VII: Double-stranded DNA with RNA intermediate (Hepadnaviruses) Hep B HIV Classification Group: Group VI (ssRNA-RT) Family: Retroviridae Genus: Lentivirus (Enveloped) Species: Human immunodeficiency virus 1 Species: Human immunodeficiency virus 2 Species Virulence Infectivity Prevalence Inferred origin HIV-1 HIV-2 High Low Global West Africa Chimpanzee Sooty Mangabey High Lower CRF14_BG HIV-1 Tropism www.hivmedicine.com/textbook/pathogen.htm Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). AIDS has killed nearly 30 million people since it was first recognized in 1981. At the end of 2010, an estimated 34 million people were living with HIV worldwide. In 2010 alone, AIDS claimed an estimated 1.8 million lives, of which 250,000 were children. HIV primarily infects vital cells in the human immune system such as helper T cells (CD4+ T cells), macrophages and dendritic cells. HIV infection leads to low levels of CD4+ T cells. http://www.unaids.org/en/ Transmission Sexual route. Blood or blood product route. Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT).
