- You have recently isolated a virus associated with a human disease. The virus particles are spherical, ~100 nm in diameter, and possess an envelope. Would you expect to find glycoproteins in the viral envelope? yes Would knowing that the particles are spherical mean that they are built with icosahedral symmetry? [Select]Compare the structure of an icosahedral capsid with that of a helical capsid. How do pentamers and hexamers associate to form a complete icosahedron? Which virus would have a longer helical capsid: a virus with a 7,200 base pair DNA genome or one with an 11,000 base ssRNA genome?How many protein subunits would be present in a complex icosahedral virus particle with a triangulation (T) number of 8?
- Viruses are made up of the same biomolecules as cellular organisms (DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, etc.). They infect cells and replicate themselves using resources from the host cells. Scientists discovered a previously unknown strain of virus in the tropical Pacific Ocean and it can infect higher-order eukaryotes. Initial analysis revealed that the virus is mainly composed of nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids. Chemical analysis after complete hydrolysis revealed the following building blocks (by weight): Chemical components Nucleosides Amino acids Lipids, phosphates, and carbohydrates Percentage by weight 20 30 50 Analysis of percentages of nucleosides yielded the following results (by molar ratio): Nucleosides A G T C U Percentage by mole 19 29 19 29 4 Researchers determined that the lipids found in the virus form a bilayer membrane surrounding the virus, and are obtained from the membrane of the host cell during virus maturation and exit from host cell. Further…The relative amounts of each nitrogenous base are tabulated here for four different viruses. For each virus listed in the following table, indicate whether its genetic material is DNA or RNA and whether it is single stranded or double stranded. Explain your reasoning. Virus T C U G A I 0 12 9 12 9 II 23 16 0 16 23 III 34 42 0 18 39 IV 0 24 35 27 17As a general rule, viruses are not considered to be alive based on several reasons. One such reason is that some viruses use RNA as their genetic material instead of DNA. Which of the five biological themes does this violate? Briefly explain why.
- The relative amounts of each nitrogenous base are tabulated here for four different viruses. For each virus listed in the following table, indicate whether its genetic material is DNA or RNA and whether it is single stranded or double stranded. Explain your reasoning. Virus т G A 12 12 II 23 16 16 23 III 34 42 18 39 IV 24 35 27 17Match each of the following replication classes of viruses with the one description that best describes it. This virus class is composed of segmented and non-segmented helical viruses that carry an RdRp within the virion into the cell. Example: Rabies virus These viruses are non- enveloped, icosahedral, have segmented genomes, and carry their own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The viral genome is copied following assembly. Example: Reovirus This is the only class of RNA viruses whose genome is replicated by cellular enzymes and not an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Cellular DNA polymerases replicate this virus's non- integrated genome, although transcription is not the initial event that takes place in the process. Example: Parvoviruses In this class of viruses, transcription occurs before genome replication because viral proteins are involved in replicating the genome. Example: Adenovirus This class of viruses forms circular DNA and creates pre- genomic RNA using host RNA polymerases.…Which of the following highly contagious viruses is a single-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus with a helical capsid and envelope and is transmitted by coming in contact with respiratory secretions? "This is a highly contagious respiratory illness transmitted when an infected person coughs or sneezes virus particles into the air," the health department said in a written statement. "It's so contagious that if one person is sick and spreading measles, nine out of 10 people around them who aren't immune will get it, too." Group of answer choices a. Measles b. Parvovirus c. Coxsackie virus A d. Rhinovirus
- A particular virus with DNA as its genetic material has the following proportions of nucleotides: 20% A, 35% T. 25% G, and 20% C. How can you explain this result?Which biological system contains a protein nucleocapsid surrounding 2 antiparallel polynucleotide strands (held together by hydrogen bonds), with deoxyribose sugars, but no ribose sugars? a single-stranded RNA viroid (like avocado sun blotch viroid) a double-stranded RNA virus (like the reovirus family) a single-stranded DNA virus (like fX174 virus of E. coli) a double-stranded DNA virus (like the smallpox virus) a single-stranded RNA virus (like tobacco mosaic virus)Why do the two types of viruses differ if each has plus configuration single stranded RNA as its genome?
