Concept explainers
(a)
To explain: Whether increasing the salt concentration promotes or weakens the M1-histone binding.
Concept introduction: Structural proteins that help in connecting the viral envelopes with the viral core are known as the matrix proteins. Matrix proteins found in the influenza virus are called M1 proteins or M1 matrix proteins. This protein helps the virus to bind with the components of the host cell.
(b)
To explain: Whether a decrease in pH promotes or weakens the M1-histone binding.
Concept introduction: Structural proteins that help in connecting the viral envelops with the viral core are known as the matrix proteins. Matrix proteins found in the influenza virus are called M1 proteins or M1 matrix proteins. This protein helps the virus to bind with the components of the host cell.
