  2. Viral envelope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_envelope

    Viral envelope persistence, whether it be enveloped or naked, are a factor in determining longevity of a virus on inanimate surfaces. [15] Enveloped viruses possess great adaptability and can change in a short time in order to evade the immune system. Enveloped viruses can cause persistent infections. [citation needed]

  3. Viral shedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_shedding

    Viral progeny are synthesized within the cell, and the host cell's transport system is used to enclose them in vesicles; the vesicles of virus progeny are carried to the cell membrane and then released into the extracellular space. This is used primarily by non-enveloped viruses, although enveloped viruses display this too.

  4. Fuselloviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuselloviridae

    Viruses in Fuselloviridae are enveloped, with lemon-shaped geometries. The diameter is around 60 nm, with a length of 100 nm. ... Fuselloviruses are released from the ...

  5. Viral replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_replication

    How a virus releases from the host cell is dependent on the type of virus it is. One common type of release is budding. This occurs when viruses that form their envelope from the host's plasma membrane bend the membrane around the capsid. As the virus bends the plasma membrane it begins to wrap around the whole capsid until the virus is no ...

  6. Virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus

    [6]: 243–259 Enveloped viruses (e.g., HIV) typically are released from the host cell by budding. During this process, the virus acquires its envelope, which is a modified piece of the host's plasma or other, internal membrane. [6]: 185–187

  7. Viral entry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_entry

    Once inside the cell, the virus leaves the host vesicle by which it was taken up and thus gains access to the cytoplasm. Examples of viruses that enter this way include the poliovirus, hepatitis C virus, [14] and foot-and-mouth disease virus. [15] Many enveloped viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, also enter the cell through endocytosis. Entry via the ...

  8. Poliovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poliovirus

    Virus is shed in the feces of infected individuals. In 95% of cases only a primary, transient presence of viremia (virus in the bloodstream) occurs, and the poliovirus infection is asymptomatic. In about 5% of cases, the virus spreads and replicates in other sites such as brown fat, reticuloendothelial tissue, and muscle.

  9. Coronaviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronaviridae

    Coronaviridae is a family of enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses which infect amphibians, birds, and mammals. Commonly referred to as coronaviruses in the English language, the family coronaviridae includes the subfamilies Letovirinae and Orthocoronavirinae; the latter also known as coronavirinae. The viral genome is 26–32 kilobases in length.
