Virology Lectures 2023 #3: Genomes and Genetics
The viral genome is blueprint for making new virus particles. In this lecture we review each of the seven types of DNA and RNA viral genomes and how they lead to the production of mRNA
Virology Lectures 2023 #4: Structure of viruses
Viral particles are a paradox: they must protect the genome in its journey among hosts, but also come apart under the right conditions to release the genome into cells, a property called metastability.
Virology Lectures 2023 #5: Attachment and Entry
Viruses are too large to pass through the membrane of the cell, a necessary step for these obligate intracellular parasites. To enter cells, viruses bind receptors on the plasma membrane and release their genome at the cell surface or within the cell.
