Genetic material and replication DNA viruses • Double-stranded DNA viruses include poxviruses, herpesviruses, adenoviruses, papovaviruses and polyomaviruses. • Single-stranded DNA viruses include parvoviruses. Rhabdoviridae –ss RNA +ss RNA New virus Host membrane Viral proteins Enveloped virus –ss RNA New virus Viral proteins DNA viruses usually replicate in the nucleus of host cells by producing a polymerase that reproduces viral DNA. Viral DNA is not usually incorporated into host chromosomal DNA. RNA viruses RNA viruses possess a single strand of RNA and adopt different reproductive strategies: • RNA sense (positive) may serve directly as mRNA and be translated into structural protein and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.

Bamford. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 64 Published 2012 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. • RNA antisense (negative) contains an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase that transcribes the viral genome into mRNA. Alternatively, the transcribed RNA can act as a template for further viral (antisense) RNA. • Retroviruses have single-stranded sense RNA that cannot act as mRNA. This is transcribed into DNA by reverse transcriptase and incorporated into host DNA. The .
