Aquareovirus (taxid:10979)

VIRION

image

Non enveloped, icosahedral virion with a double capsid structure, about 75 nm in diameter. Pentameric turrets sit on the outside of the innermost capsid. The outer capsid has a T=13 icosahedral symmetry, the inner capsid a T=2* icosahedral symmetry.

GENOME

image

Segmented linear dsRNA genome. Contains 11 segments coding for 12 proteins. Segments size range from 0.8 to 4.0 kb. Genome total size range from 18.2 to 30.5 kb.

GENE EXPRESSION

The dsRNA genome is never completely uncoated, to prevent activation of antiviral state by the cell in response of dsRNA. Viral polymerase synthesizes mRNA from each dsRNA segment which are translocated to the cell cytoplasm where they are translated.

ENZYMES

REPLICATION

CYTOPLASMIC

  1. Attachment to host receptors probably mediates endocytosis of virus into host cell.
  2. Particles are partially uncoated in endolysosomes, but not entirely, and penetrate in the cytoplasm.
  3. Early transcription of the dsRNA genome by viral polymerase occurs inside this sub-viral particle (naked core), so that dsRNA is never exposed to the cytoplasm.
  4. Full-length plus-strand transcripts from each of the dsRNA segments are synthesized. These plus-strand transcripts are used as templates for translation.
  5. Viral proteins and genomic RNAs aggregates in cytoplasmic viral factories.
  6. (+)RNAs are encapsidated in a sub-viral particle, in which they are transcribed to give RNA (-) molecules with which they become base-paired to produce dsRNA genomes.
  7. The capsid is assembled on the sub-viral particle.
  8. Mature virions are released presumably following cell death and associated breakdown of host plasma membrane.
