Lipothrixviridae (taxid:10477)

VIRION

image

Enveloped, rod-shaped. The capsid is about 24-38 nm in diameter and 410-1950 nm in length.

GENOME

Linear dsDNA genome of 15.9 to 56 kb. Extremities of the DNA are modified in an unknown manner.

GENE EXPRESSION

The genome is organized in operons.

REPLICATION

CYTOPLASMIC

  1. Adsorption: the phage attaches to target cell
  2. Injection: viral DNA is injected in host cell cytoplasm
  3. Transcription and translation of early genes
  4. Replication of genomic DNA
  5. Transcription and translation of late genes
  6. Genomic DNA is packaged in new virions
  7. Mature virions are released from the cell
