UNCOATING
RELEASE OF VIRION
3. ATTACHMENT (ADSORPTION)
• This is the first steps in virus
infection in which
interaction of virus with a
specific receptor site on the
surface of host cell occurs
• Viral protein on the capsid
or phospholipid envelope
interact with specific
receptors on the host cellular
surface. This specificity
determines the host range
(tropism) of virus
4. PENETRATION
• The virus enters the plant cell by
wounds created artificially, by
vector, or naturally when an infected
pollen grain deposits itself inside an
ovule
• The process of attachment to a
specific receptor can induce
conformational changes in viral
capsid protein or the lipid envelop
that results in fusion of viral and
cellular membranes
5. UNCOATING
• Once within the host, the virus sheds
its capsid or coat and becomes
naked.
• Uncoating is defined as release of
viral genome from capsid and is
accessible to enzyme required to
translate, transcribe and replicate it
6. TRANSCRIPTION
• The process of transcription involves copying information from a
strand of DNA into a new messenger RNA molecule (mRNA).
DNA preserves genetic material in the cells' nucleus securely and
permanently as a template or reference.
• Transcription of viral genome is usually the next step in all virus
except in those virus whose genome acts directly as mRNA (eg.
Picorna virus)
7.
8. • RNA viruses that carry minus(-) stranded RNA first transcribe
their RNA to plus (+) stranded RNA that functions as mRNA
(transcriptase)
• The transcription is catalyzed by viral RNA polymerase released
during uncoating
• The genetic information replicated from DNA is carried by
messenger RNA (mRNA) in the form of a sequence of three base
“code words” that each designate a certain amino acid.
9. TRANSLATION
• A process by which viral mRNA is translated into viral protein, using
the host cellular machinery (amino acid, ribosomes, t-RNA of host).
• The ribosome, a structure that is a factory for the creation of proteins,
is where translation takes place.
10. • A form of RNA molecule called transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) aids
in the translation of a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence into protein.
• During translation, the process by which an mRNA molecule is
converted into a protein, tRNA performs specialized roles at various
locations inside the ribosome.
11. REPLICATION OF GENOME
• Replication is the process of creating new RNA molecules that
are identical to the template RNA.
• The virus specific enzyme that replicates proteins all (+) ss-RNA
viruses that encode one or more proteins are replicated by an
enzyme called RNA polymerase (RNA dependent).
• After nucleic acid replication many copy of progeny nucleic acids
formed
• The viruses begin to synthesis mRNA utilizing host cell
machinery for the massive synthesis of viral RNA particles that
come.
12.
13. ASSEMBLY
• Once the virus's nucleic acid and protein subunits have been
created, the virus’s nucleic acid arranges the protein subunits
around it to form virions, the entire virus particle.
• With RNA viruses (ss-RNA or ds-RNA), the entire process occurs
in the plant cell's cytoplasm.
• The virions of the ss-DNA virus are created in the nucleus and
released into the cytoplasm of the host cell.
14.
15. RELEASE
• The mechanism of virus release vary with types of virus
• The naked viruses are generally released by cell lysis
• The enveloped viruses are released by budding through special
area of host cell membrane during which virion acquire a portion
of host cell membrane
• In some animal and plant virus host cells are not killed the virus
release through special channels
• The formed virus particles are released into various plant sections
via physiological plant processes.

18. ds-DNA VIRUS REPLICATION
• The cell nucleus is where viral ds-DNA first enters and gets
twisted and supercoiled to produce a mini chromosome.
• This double-stranded viral DNA, which resembles a mini
chromosome, is then translated into two single-stranded RNAs
and carried into the cytoplasm.
• In this process, one tiny strand is translated into the virus coat
protein, and the other big RNA strand is encapsulated by coat
protein subunits and utilized as a template for reverse
transcription to create the entire virion ds-DNA
