The whole of the genetic information of a virus, contained as either DNA or RNA. A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. The name given to a viral genome after it has been integrated into the host genome; particularly applies to retroviruses and is a required part of the retroviral replication cycle. A constituent part of an intracellular organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, occurring within the cell. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton but excludes the plasma membrane. Any constituent part of a chromosome, a structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. Any constituent part of a virion, a complete fully infectious extracellular virus particle.
