Virus Infectious Cycle
Across
- 2. ___ can be used to stain infected cells and quantify viruses that do not induce CPE.
- 8. Cells directly from patients, or _____ cells, typically can only be kept in culture for a short time.
- 9. ___ is when particles leave the host cell.
- 11. The step when viral genome and proteins are put together to form particles.
- 17. ___ is when the capsid dissociation from the capsid releases the genome.
- 18. Because infection is random, adding 1 viral particle per cell will not ensure all cells are infected at the beginning. The probability of infection will follow a ____ distribution.
- 19. Cell lines that have the ability to grow in culture for long periods of time are called ___ cells.
- 20. Cells that contain all the necessary factors to enable the virus to replicate and form new particles are considered ____.
- 21. ___ assays quantify virions by utilizing a confluent monolayer of cells and an overlay that prevents virus from moving throughout the culture. After several replication cycles, CPE is evident when live cells are stained.
- 22. Viruses begin infection by first ___ to the cell surface.
- 23. Bacteria replicate by ___ fission, when one cells becomes two.
- 24. The ___ ratio compares the total number of particles compared to infectious particles.
- 25. The first continuous cell culture which was developed from a cervical tumor.
Down
- 1. ___ is the number of infectious viral particles relative to the number of cells that will be infected.

- 4. Before tissue culture, many viruses were propagated in ___ eggs.
- 5. Viruses that bind to red blood cells can be quantified by a ____ assay.
- 6. __ is the process of making protein.
- 7. Viral replication curves have a unique step called ___. This is the period before viral genome replication has occurred and no infectious particles can be detected in the cell.
- 10. ___ are 3D cell cultures that better represent different host tissues.
- 12. Some viruses induce fusion between neighboring cells, inducing large __.
- 13. A ___ replication curve requires starting infection with a few viral particles and monitoring for several rounds of replication.
- 14. ___ effect is the visible change in cells produced by viral replication.
- 15. Cells that produce a protein that enable a virus to bind are considered ____.
- 16. ___ dilution assays serial dilute the viral sample and then monitor some type of infection. They can be expressed as TCID50, LD50, etc.
