- You are studying a new retrovirus. The viral protein (X) appears to play a role in the export of the viral genomes to the cytoplasm. Protein X brings viral DNA to the cytoplasm and returns back to the nucleus after genome export is complete. Researchers have developed a new drug for the virus. Following treatment with the new drug, the viral protein stays in the nucleus and cannot export the viral genomes. What is the most plausible and logical function of the drug? Use your knowledge of nuclear transport to answer this question. O A. The drug inhibits the binding of the viral protein and the viral genomes to the import receptor. B. The drug inhibits the binding of Ran-GTP to the nuclear export receptor in nucleus. C. The drug promotes the Ran GAP activity. D. The drug blocks the NLS on the viral protein.arrow_forwardYou are a virologist studying a newly isolated viral strain and have sequenced its genome. You find that the genome contains 25% A, 55% G, 20% C, and 10% U. Which of the following conclusions is likely correct? This is a single-stranded RNA virus This is a single-stranded DNA virus This is a double-stranded RNA virus This is a double-stranded DNA virus No conclusions can be drawn from this informationarrow_forwardIn RNA viruses, the + RNA genome can act as mRNA right away and proteins can be made. The + genome is used to make - genome, which then makes + genome? and which is the genome that will be packaged to leave the cell?arrow_forward
- Different types of viruses have different types of genomes- some are double-stranded DNA, some are single-stranded DNA, some are double-stranded RNA, and some are single-stranded RNA. The Ebola virus genome is a piece of single-stranded RNA. Given this piece of information, do you expect it to see %Adenine = %Uracil and the %Guanine = %Cytosine? Why or why not?arrow_forwardHow many millions of bases are in the genome of the mimivirus or largest virus known?arrow_forwardThe genetic material found within some viruses is single-strandedDNA. Would this genetic material contain equal amounts of A andT and equal amounts of G and C?arrow_forward
- 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)arrow_forwardAre viruses living?

- You have just isolated the covid-19 virus. Analysis of its genome reveals that it is composed of a single stranded RNA molecule containing 24% adenine. Based on this information, what would you predict the % cytosine to be? (a) 24% (b) 26% (c) 48% (d) 52% (e ) Cannot be determined from the information givenarrow_forwardWhy must primary cell cultures be restarted every so often when preparing primary cell cultures to observe morphological changes caused by cells infected by a virus? Why are tumor cells preferred? Why are non-enveloped viruses generally more resistant to disinfectants than are enveloped viruses? A public health physician isolated large number of phages from rivers used as a source of drinking water in western Africa. They physician is very concerned that humans might become ill from drinking this water, although she knows that the phages specifically attack bacteria. Why is she concerned?arrow_forwardThis virus does not conform to the central dogma of molecular biology. Explain the central dogma and how the virus behaves differently.
