The Filoviridae family of viruses is where the Ebola virus belongs. The virus is distinguished by long filamentous structure which can present as straight‚ branched‚ and circular or a folded strand with a uniform diameter of approximately 80 nm but can be many different lengths. Liver cells‚ neutrophils‚ endothelial cells and macrophages are specifically targeted by the virus. Large quantities of cytokines are created by infected cells which solicits a large response from the immune system and interrupts

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a single-strand and positive-sense RNA virus of the Hepacivirus genus in the Flaviviridae family (1). According to the organization of the HCV genome‚ the virus is divided into 7 genotypes and more than 60 subtypes. The seven genotypes of this virus are seen in all over the world. It is known that HCV genotype one and four are hard to treat‚ while genotype 2 and 3 have more comfortable treatment. Thus‚ identification of HCV genotype in infected patients is essential

Lecture 2- overview of the virus 1. The first step- the virus binds to a receptor-->entry and uncoating--> early gene expression-->replication of viral genome-->late gene expression->assembly of viral progeny-->exit 2. Concept 2.1- Virus entry is a multistep process with the ultimate goal of delivering viral genome (payload) into the cells. A. Binding to surface receptors- - a viral receptor is cell surface molecule‚ likely a transmembrane protein - a virus may need multiple receptors

In general‚ an influenza virus infects only a single species; however‚ whole viruses may occasionally be transmitted from one species to another‚ and genetic reassortment between viruses from two different hosts can produce a new virus capable of infecting a third host. Avian influenza viruses are not readily introduced into humans [3]‚ possibly because humans
