causes Disease
The lytic cycle involves the immediate replication of the virus and eventual destruction of the host cell, while the lysogenic cycle involves the integration of the virus's genetic material into the host cell's genome, leading to longer-term dormancy. Lytic cycle results in rapid production of new viral particles, while lysogenic cycle allows the virus to replicate along with the host cell's DNA until a trigger induces the lytic cycle.
Viruses can be classified based on their structure (DNA or RNA, enveloped or non-enveloped) and their method of replication (lytic or lysogenic life cycles).
In the lytic cycle, a virus enters a host cell, replicates quickly, and then bursts the cell to release new viruses. This results in immediate cell lysis and destruction. In the lysogenic cycle, the virus incorporates its genetic material into the host cell's DNA and remains dormant for some time before switching to the lytic cycle. This allows the virus to persist within the host for an extended period without causing immediate harm.
During the cycle of viral shedding, the virus has made copies of itself and the host cell is no longer useful. The host cell then dies, and the new virus cells then must find a new host.
In the illustration, the lysogenic cycle is like a dormant phase where the virus's genetic material is integrated into the host cell's DNA, while the lytic cycle is like an active phase where the virus replicates and destroys the host cell. This shows how the lysogenic cycle differs from the lytic cycle in terms of their impact on the host cell and the timing of viral replication.
: During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed.
The cells are lysed during the lytic cycle, but they are not lysed during the lysogenic cycle.
: During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed.
During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed. This is from Apex Btw.
During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed. This is from Apex Btw.
Unlike lytic viruses, lysogenic viruses do NOT lyse the host cell right away where as lytic cells do.
In the lysogenic cycle, the virus's genetic material integrates into the host's genome and remains dormant, only activating later to enter the lytic cycle. The lytic cycle involves the virus immediately taking over the host cell's machinery to replicate and destroy the host cell to release new viral particles.
The Lytic cycle causes disease
: During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed.
: During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed.
Phages that replicate only via the lytic cycle are known as virulent phages while phages that replicate using both lytic and lysogenic cycles are known as temperate phages.
HPV infects the dermis layer of cells using the lysogenic cycle.
