GO Term : GO:0098677 virion maturation GO

Namespace  biological_process Obsolete  false
Description  Maturation of a virion after separation from the host cell. Not all viruses mature after separation. In those that do, maturation typically involves rearangement and/or cleavage of viral proteins, resulting in the virion becoming competent for reinfection.

Identifier Name Description
GO:0008150 biological_process A biological process is the execution of a genetically-encoded biological module or program. It consists of all the steps required to achieve the specific biological objective of the module. A biological process is accomplished by a particular set of molecular functions carried out by specific gene products (or macromolecular complexes), often in a highly regulated manner and in a particular temporal sequence.
GO:0019058 viral life cycle A set of processes which all viruses follow to ensure survival; includes attachment and entry of the virus particle, decoding of genome information, translation of viral mRNA by host ribosomes, genome replication, and assembly and release of viral particles containing the genome.
GO:0016032 viral process A multi-organism process in which a virus is a participant. The other participant is the host. Includes infection of a host cell, replication of the viral genome, and assembly of progeny virus particles. In some cases the viral genetic material may integrate into the host genome and only subsequently, under particular circumstances, 'complete' its life cycle.
GO:0019075 virus maturation The refolding and structural rearrangements of virion parts to transition from the intermediate virion to the more mature virion. Maturation usually involves proteolysis events and changes in the folding of the virion proteins. Can occur inside the host cell or after release.
GO:0098677 virion maturation Maturation of a virion after separation from the host cell. Not all viruses mature after separation. In those that do, maturation typically involves rearangement and/or cleavage of viral proteins, resulting in the virion becoming competent for reinfection.
