Replication overview�
Replication of animal DNA viruses �
�Enzymes mostly of host origin, some viruses carry their own enzymes��Host machinery (enzymes etc) for generating DNA are in�the nucleus (and mitochondria). ��Viruses utilizing host enzymes need to enter the nucleus. ��Viruses with own enzymes can replicate in the cytosol. �
Nuclear DNA viruses�
I. Parvoviruses�
II. Polyomaviruses �
III. Adenoviruses��IV. Herpesviruses ��V. Hepnadviruses �
Cytoplasmic DNA viruses�
I. Poxvirus�
May carry some enzymes�
Example of class I: Polyomaviruses �
Small, icosahedral, ~ 40 nm in diameter��
Contains circular duplex DNA ��
Replicates in the nucleus ��
DNA associates with host cell histones��
Utilizes host cell machinery mostly, except some viral proteins��
Viral proteins required for replication (enzymes, regulatory �proteins etc) are expressed first (early genes) �
�Host RNA polymerase II recognizes promoter, mRNA produced�
�Post-transcriptional RNA processing carried out by host enzymes�
�Alternative processing of primary transcript produces�
small and large T antigens (Tag) ����
Example of class I: Polyomaviruses �
Example of class I: Polyomaviruses �
Replication starts in the late phase of infection��Similar to host DNA replication process��Host enzymes are used��Host DNA polymerase recognizes SV40 origin of replication in the presence of �large T antigen��Host histones bind to newly synthesized viral DNA ���
Example of class I: Polyomaviruses �
Example of class I: Adenovirus�
Large non-enveloped icosahedral virus (~ 70 nm diameter) ��Linear, ds DNA, associated with virally coded basic proteins�(not host cell histones) �
Early gene expression (proteins required for replication) carried out with �host RNA pol and RNA modification enzymes ��Encodes its own DNA polymerase for replication��Requires host proteins also ��DNA replicated by a strand displacement mechanism ��No Okazaki fragments, continuous synthesis��Protein TP acts as primer (attached to 5’ end) �
Example of class I: Adenovirus�
Example of class I: Adenovirus�
Enveloped icosahedral virus, ~ 200 nm in diameter��Linear, double stranded DNA ��
Example of class I: Herpesvirus �
Utilizes host RNA polymerase and host RNA modification enzymes��A viral protein VP16 (tegument) enters the nucleus and binds to viral genome. This is part of the transcription factor complex recognized by host RNA polymerase. �
Example of class I: Herpesvirus �
Early proteins encoded - DNA polymerase, DNA binding proteins, �thymidine kinase, ribonucleotide reductase��Comparatively more viral proteins utilized (drug targets) ��Precise mechanism of replication not known��Newly synthesized DNA exists as concatamers, cleaved to appropriate size �during packaging �
Example of class I: Herpesvirus �
Example of class I: Poxvirus�
Large enveloped virus, diameter ~ 200 nm ��Contains a double stranded DNA genome (192 kbp) ��Contains ~ 250 genes�
Packages its own DNA dependent RNA polymerase ��Naked poxvirus DNA is not infectious at all��Methylation, capping, polyadenylation of mRNA carried out by virally encoded �and packaged enzymes��One of the immediate early mRNAs codes for an “uncoating” protein ��Replication occurs in the cytoplasm, in “viral factories”��Replication of DNA occurs by strand displacement and concatemer resolution��Five major viral proteins are used, along with some cellular proteins�
Example of class I: Poxvirus�
Hepnadviruses – Class I/VII �
Enveloped, icosahedral viruses containing a partially double stranded, circular, but not covalently closed DNA genome �Examples - Hepatitis B virus��Replicates through an RNA intermediate �Packages its own DNA polymerase, which has reverse transcriptase activity��

�Properties of RNA viruses�
Genome usually smaller than that of DNA viruses��Probably because of the higher rate of error accumulation in RNA genomes��RNA dependent RNA polymerase necessary (no DNA stage) ��Relatively few proteins���
Strategy to make multiple proteins - � a) Producing multiple monocistronic RNAs� b) Producing a primary transcript that is processed by host splicing machinery� c) Producing a large polypeptide which is cleaved into individual proteins� d) Allowing ribosomes to bind internally to viral RNA �
