Of the six categories of inhibition, (inhibition of cell wall synthesis, inhibition of protein synthesis, disruption of cytoplasmic membrane, inhibition of general metabolic pathway, inhibition of DNA or RNA synthesis, or inhibition of pathogens attachment or entry into host cell) which would be effective against viruses? Which would be practical to use?
Homework Answers
In antiviral therapy inhibition of DNA and RNA synthesis, and inhibition of pathogens attachment and penetration into host cell are used commonly. Among all stratergies to prevent attachment and penetration is most effective and practical as well. There is no cell wall and cell membrane around viral genetic material.

Zithromycin inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria. However, it cannot cross gram-negative bacteria cell walls. Would you expect zithromycin to be broad or narrow spectrum? Why? Amphotericin B disrupts the plasma membrane by binding to sterols. Why can’t it be used to treat bacterial infections? Match the following processes with the statements listed below. (Answers may be used more than once.) a. transcription b. translation c. DNA replication Ciprofloxacin inhibits DNA helicase. Which process is inhibited? _______________ RCT is a nucleotide substitute for uracil. Which process is inhibited? ___________ Tetracycline...

1. The virus hijacks the cell, and RNA polymerases produce the complement to the positive stranded RNA genome. We can call these strands negative strands, and they then serve as templates for RNA polymerases to produce their complement. How does the sequence of these strands, the complement to the negative strands, compare with the original viral genome? 2-1. RNA polymerases lack proofreading ability. Define proofreading ability and describe its importance in replication of DNA genomes. a. Why is this a...
