The post TWiV 1177: Going to school for flu first appeared on This Week in Virology.
In week 2 of the Coursera class I’m currently taking, we learned that a cell is either Susceptible, Permissive or both. We learned that a susceptible cell is a cell that has a receptor for a virus while a permissive cell has the components to support viral replication.
…Enter this plant virus you speak about in this episode which doesn’t require a surface receptor. Does this now mean that all plant cells are susceptible? Are there any examples of human/animal viruses which don’t require a surface receptor?
To me, this seems like a fundamental distinction…a “principal” of virology 🙂
