Punavirus is a genus of viruses in the order Caudovirales , in the family Myoviridae . Bacteria serve as natural hosts. There are four species in this genus. [1] [2]
The following four species are assigned to the genus: [2]
Viruses in Punavirus are non-enveloped, with icosahedral and head-tail geometries. The diameter is around 85 nm. Genomes are circular, around 100kb in length. The genome codes for 100 proteins. [1]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic arrangement | Genomic segmentation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Punavirus | Head-Tail | Non-enveloped | Circular | Monopartite |
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by adsorption into the host cell. DNA-templated transcription is the method of transcription. Bacteria serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are passive diffusion. [1]
