Question
Chapter 26, Problem 26.6PS
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason for the interaction of oncogenic virus with the tumor suppressor proteins.
Introduction: Virus is a nonliving entity which can be even crystallized. The virus is dependent on the host for its replication and hijacks host replicating machinery for its replication. There are many oncogenic viruses like EBV which causes cancer in humans.

Please help me with this question. More than one answer may be correct. THe graph relating to the information is included below.
The above graph is looking at the relative entry of SARS-CoV2 isolated spike proteins into human cells in culture at two times points: before introduction of the virus to the cell culture (0 minute) and 5 minutes after introduction of the virus to the cell culture. CHC stands for "clathrin heavy chain" and siRNA stands for small interfering RNA, which is often used in experiments as an easy method to stop expression of a certain gene. So in this case, the CHC siRNA would stop cellular production of CHC. The control siRNA introduces a small RNA fragment that does not match any gene as a negative control. From the above figure, you can conclude what about the process that allows the SARS CoV-2 virus entry into the cell?
Options:
The spike protein is not involved in cell entry, contrary to popular belief
This is evidence for clathrin-mediated endocytosis as the…

Scientists already knew that a special type of virus called a bacteriophage inserts genetic information into a bacterial cell in order to force the bacterial cell to make more bacteriophage viruses.

In the promoter of RB1, there is a CpG island. Knowing this, how might you predict that a cell could epigenetically inactivate RB1 transcription? A second hit might also occur through loss of heterozygosity (LOH). An example of how LOH may occur by reciprocal crossing over during mitosis is diagrammed in Figure 1 (next page). Discuss and interpret this model with your group. Write a brief explanation of (a) what LOH means and (b) how LOH by mitotic reciprocal crossing over can give rise to a cell lineage with functional loss of the wild-type copy of a tumor suppressor gene. .
