Lysogenic and Lytic Cycles

Cards (11)

  • 1st step of Lytic Cycle
    Attachment- virus attaches to cell surface
  • 2nd step of Lytic Cycle
    Injection (penetration)- virus injects nucleic acid into cell
  • 3rd step of Lytic Cycle
    Replication (biosynthesis)- virus causes cell to produce viral components
  • 4th step of Lytic Cycle
    Assembly (maturation)- pieces of the virus are put together to gorm a functional viral particle
  • 5th step of Lytic Cycle
    Release- a viral enzyme causes the cell to disintegrate/break open, releasing viruses
  • 1st step of Lysogenic cycle
    Attachment- Virus attaches to cell surface
  • 2nd step of Lysogenic cycle
    Injection (penetration)- virus injects nucleic acid into cell
  • 3rd step of Lysogenic cycle
    Integration- viral DNA integrates itself into a specific site of the host cell's DNA --> prophage
  • 4th step of Lysogenic cycle (4B)
    Cell multiplication- cells copies itself and the viral DNA at the same time--> cell continues to grow and copy themselves indefinitely
  • 5th step of Lysogenic cycle
    Lytic Cell- radiation, chemicals, stress.. can cause the prophage to become virulent - enter the destructive lytic cycle
  • 6th Step entering into lytic cyle
    Release- a viral enzyme causes the cell to disintegrate/break open, releasing viruses
