Details for modulation of host virulence by virus
Gene ontology ID
GO:0098676
Definition
Any process by which a virus modulates the ability of its host to infect and/or damage an organism for which it is a host. Typically this involves a phage modulating the virulence of a bacterium. Mechanisms include the expression of factors that modulate a bacterial adhesion to a host cell, spread through host tissues, production exotoxins or provide protection against host immune defenses
