- Virus - Wikipedia
It can be a virus that is isolated from its natural reservoir or isolated as the result of spread to an animal or human host where the virus had not been identified before
- Viruses: Definition, Types, Characteristics Facts
A virus is a small piece of genetic information in a “carrying case” — a protective coating called a capsid Viruses aren’t made up of cells, so they don’t have all the equipment that cells do to make more copies of themselves
- Virus | Definition, Structure, Facts | Britannica
Virus, infectious agent of small size and simple composition that can multiply only in living cells of animals, plants, or bacteria Viruses possess unique infective properties and thus often cause disease in host organisms Learn about the history, types, and features of viruses
- What Is a Virus? Definition, Structure, and How Viruses Work
A virus is a microscopic infectious agent composed of genetic material—either DNA or RNA—enclosed within a protein coat known as a capsid Some viruses also possess an outer lipid envelope derived from the host cell membrane

- Introduction to viruses - Wikipedia
When a virus infects a cell, the virus forces it to make thousands more viruses It does this by making the cell copy the virus's DNA or RNA, making viral proteins, which all assemble to form new virus particles
- Virus - National Human Genome Research Institute
A virus is an infectious microbe consisting of a segment of nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein coat A virus cannot replicate alone; instead, it must infect cells and use components of the host cell to make copies of itself
- The Science Behind Viral Infections: How Viruses Hijack the Body
A virus cannot carry out any metabolic processes on its own—no breathing, no digestion, and certainly no movement Instead, viruses are made up of just a few components: genetic material (either DNA or RNA) encased in a protein coat, sometimes with an outer lipid envelope
