An extracellular virus is a virus that exists outside of host cells, in the external environment. It is typically in a metabolically inactive state and is composed of genetic material (either DNA or RNA) encased in a protein coat, sometimes surrounded by a lipid envelope. Extracellular viruses are responsible for infecting host cells, where they can replicate and propagate their genetic material. Their ability to survive outside host cells allows them to spread and infect new hosts.
What else can I help you with?
How do virus prion and viroid evolve?
Prions are misfolded proteins and may form because of some misreading of the DNA code. Virions are extracellular state of a virus with nucleocapsid.
How virus prion and viroid evolve?

Is earthworm digestion extracellular or intracellular?
It is extracellular
Where is the extracellular fluid found in the body?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Is plasma intracellular or extracellular?
Chloride is an Anion in Extracellular Fluid
Is urine from a catheter a intracellular or extracellular fluid?
Urine from a catheter is considered an extracellular fluid because it is produced and stored outside the cells of the body.
Can you use the word extracellular in a sentence?
The word Extracellular is an adjective, and refers to something that is occurring outside the walls of the cell. So you might say...... Microscopically, I can see extracellular fluid accumulating. Or.... This organism has extracellular fluid accumulation.
Which organism does not carry out extracellular digestion?
A cat is an example of an organism that doesn't carry out extracellular digestion. Parasites and fungi are examples of organisms that use extracellular digestion.
What are cells often bound to the extracellular matrix by?
The cells are often bound to the extracellular matrix by proteins in the plasma membrane. The extracellular matrix is the structural support of tissue.
What is found in extracellular fluid?
The principal elements in the extracellular fluid are sodium, potassium and calcium.
Is the extracellular fluid hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
The extracellular fluid is hydrophilic, meaning it is attracted to water.
What is virion?
A virion is a complete virus particle outside a host cell, consisting of genetic material (either DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat known as a capsid. Virions are the infectious form of a virus that can transmit its genetic material to infect a host cell and replicate.
