Would it be effective to use an inhibitor of RNA polymerase to block the HIV replication cycle and subsequent infection of human T cells? Yes, this would stop the transcription of viral genes and prevent HIV from being able to replicate. No, these types of inhibitors do not exist and would be impossible to make. No, this would block transcription of T cell genes, leading to the death of T cells and compromised immune systems in individuals. Yes, inhibitors of RNA polymerase are easy and relatively inexpensive to produce and make good therapeutics.

Which of the following best describes the production of insulin in by bacterial cells. The biosynthetic pathway that produces human insulin is introduced into bacterial cells on a plasmid. Insulin is purified from bacterial lysates by electrophoresis. Human insulin in a peptide hormone comprised of two chains A and B. Only B chain is required, It is produced by injecting bacteria with MRNA encoding B chain peptide, and purifying the peptides with an antibody. Fuman insulin in a peptide hormone comprised of two chains A and B. It is produced by injecting bacteria with transgenic plasmids containing MRNA encoding either the A and B chain peptides, and purifying the peptides with a mix of antibodies against tne A or B chain. aman nsulina peptide hormone comprised of two chains A and B. They are produced separately as fusion proteins with beta-galactosidase when bacterial cells are transformed with plasmids containing either A or B chain with the lacZ sequence. Once purified they are…
