☞ 생물체로서의 미생물의 특징
- 성장을 위한 영양분의 흡수, 소화
- 소화산물의 배설
- 독립적 생식능력 생물계 구성원의 공통특징
- 환경변화에 대한 적응능력
- 자극에 대한 반응능력
☞ virus의 생화학적 특징
- no chemistry going on within a virus
- no intake of nutrient
- no production of waste
- no increase or decrease in size
- no metabolism
- but, they replicate

2 Viral replication
2.
- virus : inert particle outside a host cell
-> becomes highly efficient replicating machine in the host cell
-> utilize metabolism of the cell
-> produces multiple copies of itself in several stages
1) Stages of replication
(1) attachment stage
- high degree of specificity for a certain host
- 1. protein molecule in envelope keys off receptor sites(lock) in the host cell
- 2. or viral tail attaches to receptor sites
- 3. or blending of viral envelope with host cell membrane
- 4. or by phagocytosis

- some times, virus enters a host cell but do not replicate immediately =>lysogeny
- lysogenic
y g cycle
y :
-> virus incorporates its genes into the host genes and becomes part of it
-> multiply together with host genes => becomes provirus(oncogene)

☞ How viruses transform cells
- oncogene : transforming genes normally reside in the chromosomal DNA of cells
-> not viral in origin but part of the genetic endowment
->> over 60 oncogenes were identified
- proto-oncogene : fore-runners of oncogenes
-> can be converted to oncogenes by carcinogens including viruses
