Structure

Viruses in Turriviridae have icosahedral geometries, and T=31 symmetry. The diameter is around 74 nm. Genomes are linear.[1]

Life cycle

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. Sulfolobus solfataricus serves as the natural host. Transmission routes are passive diffusion.[1]

gollark: Can you not just install in text mode?
gollark: It's browser-dependent. Probably in a database in the browser's app data folders somewhere.
gollark: Put a textarea in the HTML part of your thing, and some buttons to save/~~edit~~/delete etc. Those can read the `value` property of it and save it to localstorage (you should also read its contents and set the value to that on page load).
gollark: Yes, you can also read localstorage, it would not be useful otherwise.
