Definition
genome structure: dsDNA, nonsegmented
morphology: naked, icosahedral
appearance: visible penton spikes
tip: uses a protein primer
translation initiation: promoters
transmission: respiratory
vaccine: types 4 and 7 (for military)
FACTOIDS
- cells react adversely to penton spikes
- splicing was discovered in this virus |

Definition
genome structure: partial dsDNA, nonsegmented
morphology: enveloped icosahedral
appearance: pleiomorphic (rods, circles, and dots)
tip: circular genome, ends are double-stranded; it forms an RNA transcript that extends beyond the original genome
translation initiation:
transmission: sexual, parenteral
vaccine: HBV, originally made using plasma from infected donors
FACTOIDS
- to replicate, it creates an RNA transcript, then uses reverse transcriptase |
