Briefly describe the two modes that enveloped viruses use for entry into their host cells. Attachment to a receptor and entry into a clathrin-coated pit. Endocytosis, followed by pH lowering and fusion of the viral membrane with the vessicle membrane. This indicates that there are differences between viruses and cells. In the following table are listed several features of either viruses or cells or both.
New individuals assemble by spontaneous association of subunit structures.
Both host and viral mRNA is degraded in the cell after infection. I MHC is displayed on the surface of the infected cell. The virally infected cell dies. Capped messenger RNAs are no longer translated in the infected cell. In each case it is assumed that the events would be occurring in the same cell that has undergone the treatment.
