- 1. What are the two proteins that form “spikes” on the surface of influenza virus?
- 2. In influenza, transcription of mRNAs and replication of the genome are carried out by what enzyme? Is this a cellular enzyme, or a viral enzyme?
Homework Answers
1) The structure of the influenza virus consists of a nucleoprotein center that is bounded in capsid and spikes of couple of vital proteins found on its surface- Neuraminidase and Hemagglutinin.
2) The enzyme is RNA polymerase. The enzyme has viral proteins PA,PB1 & PB2 and every virus particle has this enzyme.
hope the answer helps.

a.) Say you were able to isolate lung tissue from someone with the influenza virus, how would you amplify the viral genome to identify the sequence? b.) The drug amantadine is able to shorten the life of influenza virus by preventing the virus from uncoating. Why would preventing the virus from uncoating shorten the length of the of the viral infection of a host cell? c.) Describe another method by which a drug could inhibit another step in the viral...

1-1. The SARS-CoV-2 is an enveloped virus, meaning it is surrounded by a bilayer of membrane that it acquires as it exits the host cell. a. What is the host membrane bilayer made of? b. What is the other main macromolecule that comprises the “fluid mosaic” model of a cell membrane? 1-2. To gain entry, spikes of the SARS-CoV-2 bind to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) found in epithelial cells especially of the respiratory and oral passageways. As such, these cells...

1.In early March, it was reported that two main strains of SARS-CoV-2 had been identified, termed S and L, with the S type being the less virulent ancestral form representing about 30% of prevalence and the more virulent L type having descended from the S type and representing about 70% of prevalence. However, the prevalence of the more virulent L type seems to have decreased after early January, and it is thought that this resulted from human intervention against this...

2. A pig is infected with two subtypes of Influenza A, H3N2 and H1N1. Later, the farmer comes down with influenza that is subtyped as H3N1. What is the termfor this kind of inter-species transmission to humans? Explain how the genome structure of influenza contributed to the emergence of a new subtype of virus.

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...
