Considers the molecular details of virus replication and the host response to infection. Topics covered include virus structure, entry, replication, assembly and virus hose interactions. Molecular details and protein functions in the replication of DNA viruses and, + and - strand RNA viruses will be analyzed and compared. Seminars will be used to analyze current research papers and modern viral analysis techniques. This course is intended for graduate students who have not completed a senior undergraduate course in molecular Virology. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hours and 1 Tutorial hoursNote: Students who have credit for MCIM 417 or MCIM 817 will not receive credit for this course.
