Retrovirus: Partikkel, genom og proteiner
Figure 1 Retroviral particle and genome structure. (a) Retrovirus particle showing the approximate location of its components using the standardized two-letter nomenclature for retroviral proteins. (b) Genome organization and gene expression pattern of a simple retrovirus, showing the structure of an integrated provirus linked to flanking host cellular DNA at the termini of its LTR sequences (U3-R-U5) and the full-length RNA that serves as genomic RNA and as mRNA for translation of the gag and pol ORFs into polyproteins. env mRNA is generated by splicing and encodes an Env precursor glycoprotein. LTR, long terminal repeat (U3-R-U5 for proviral DNA, derived from R-U5 downstream of 5′ cap and U3-R upstream of 3′ poly(A) in genome RNA); PBS, primer binding site; Ψ, packaging signal; PPT, polypurine tract; SD, splice donor site; SA, splice acceptor site.
Retrovirus: Replikasjonssyklus
Figure 2 Replication cycle of a simple retrovirus. The flow of the early part of the replication cycle goes from receptor binding and internalization at the left through reverse transcription to integration of the proviral DNA. The late part of the replication cycle proceeds from the provirus through transcription and processing and translation of viral RNA to assembly and release of viral particles. Maturation of the released particles involves cleavage of viral polyproteins by PR (protease).

Figure 3 Reverse transcription and integration processes. (a) Reverse transcription. Outline of the reverse transcriptase (RT)-catalysed steps leading from single-stranded genomic RNA (top; black line) to double-stranded proviral DNA (bottom; red line). (b) Integration. The viral DNA (top) is the product of the completed reverse transcription process of (a). Shown are the integrase (IN)-mediated cleavage and religation steps leading to joining of proviral and host DNA. Subsequent repair and ligation are carried out by host factors. Note the loss of two terminal nucleotides of the viral DNA and the generation of a short repeat of host sequences of the integration site.
