STEP 4 HIV
VIRAL DNA IS TRANSCRIBED INTO VIRAL RNA
You are a nurse and you suspect that you may have been exposed to a particular virus. You and your health care provider decide to perform a hemagglutinin assay. A sample of your serum is taken and added to a sample of virus. Next, the virus and serum sample are added to erythrocytes. Upon examination, you do not see any agglutination occurring. Which can you conclude from these results?
the test result suggests you may have been exposed to the virus and your serum contains the antibodies against the virus
the Baltimore classification system describes viruses according to which characteristic?
the viral genome
Which mechanism of horizontal gene transfer relies on the use of the viruses?
transduction
(+)ssRNA can be directly used in translation at the ribosome
true
RT-PCR relises on an enzyme encoded by retroviruses
true
most plant viruses do not kill their host
true
satellite RNA can encode for protein
true
EIA
using antibodies to detect viral antigens
PCR
using primers to amplify DNA
Step 2 HIV
viral DNA is synthesized
An acellular entity composed of a small circular RNA molecule without a capsid and capable of replicating its genome is known as which of the following?
viroid
An acellular entity composed of a small circular RNA molecule without a capsid and is not capable of replicating its genome is known as which of the following?
virusoid
a bacteriophage infects a host cell and the genome integrates itself into the host chromosome. sometime later, the phage is excised along with a short piece of DNA adjacent to the insertion point. Both the phage DNA and the host DNA are packaged into the same capsid. The bacteriophage then infects a new cell, delivering both phage and bacterial DNA. Which process is being described?
The lysoogenic cycle, reactivating as the lytic cycle, followed by specialized transduction
Which of the following viruses does not cause latent infections?
adenovirus
