A techno-organic virus (also known as T-O virus) is a fictional virus in the Marvel Comics universe. The virus transforms organic material into techno-organic material. Techno-organic material resembles both machinery and living tissue. All techno-organic cells function like independent machines and carry both the virus and all information on their carriers, including memories and appearance. This allows a techno-organic being to rebuild itself from a single cell when destroyed.
There are two known variants of this disease in the Marvel Universe: the virus carried by the Technarchy, known as the Transmode Virus, and the variant created or discovered by Apocalypse.
