Study Notes

Viral Characteristics

Viruses lack cellular components such as ribosomes, mitochondria, and a cell wall.

Viral Classification

Viruses are classified based on their morphology, genome type, and host range.

Viral Replication

The first step in viral replication is attachment, where the virus binds to a specific receptor on the host cell surface.
The primary mode of viral replication is through the lytic cycle, where the virus multiplies and lyses the host cell.

Virus-Coded Synthesis

Virus-coded synthesis plays a crucial role in viral replication by producing viral proteins and enzymes necessary for replication.
