Topic: Virus like particle


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Virus - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
A virus is a microscopic parasite that infects cells in biological organisms.
Virus particles comprise a nucleic acid genome that may be either DNA or RNA, single- or double-stranded, and positive or negative sense.
Some viruses, like herpes, cause the host to produce three kinds of proteins: early proteins, enzymes used in nucleic acid replication; late proteins, proteins used to construct the virus coat; and lytic proteins, enzymes used to break open the cell for viral exit.

 Virus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the case of the hepatitis B virus the T-number is 4, therefore 240 proteins assemble to form the capsid.
Virus self-assembly within host cells also has implications for the study of the origin of life, as it lends credence to the hypothesis that life could have started as self-assembling organic molecules.
Purification of viral particles can be achieved using differential centrifugation, isopycnic centrifugation, precipitation with ammonium sulphate or ethylene glycol, and removal of cell components from a homogenised cell mixture using organic solvents or enzymes to leave the virus particles in solution.

VLP (virus-like particle) counts were not significantly correlated (p>0.001) with chlorophyll a concentration or the abundance of cyanobacteria.
The analysis of size and morphology of viral particles by TEM and the correlation obtained between the numbers of VLP and bacteria suggest that the majority of the viral particles in the Alboran Sea are bacteriophages.
Matured phage particles were released to the medium 30 to 50 h after the addition of mitomycin C Phage particles isolated from algal lysates had a polyhedral head (about 40 nm in diameter) with a long (about 300 nm) and noncontractile tail.
