a.		episome
b.		prophage
c.		capsid
d.		virulent phage

Question 16

After HIV components are made, what is the correct order of the stages that produce mature HIV particles?

a.		Assembly, maturation, budding
b.		Assembly, budding, maturation
c.		Maturation, budding, assembly
d.		Maturation, assembly, budding

Question 18

Latency in HIV occurs when

a.		the virus switches back to an active form
b.		the viral genome forms an episome and remains dormant
c.		the virus integrates into the host genome and remains dormant
d.		new viral particles are made

Expert Solution

Question 18

Latency in HIV occurs when

Answer :the virus integrates into host genome and remains dormant

Other options

a) Latency is lost when virus switches back to active form

b) when viral genome integrates into host chromosome, it is called prophage and not episome

d) when new viral particles are made it is called replication

Bacteriophage Lambda phage have the ability to survive either as a lysogen w/in a bacterial host or by lytic growth. Lytic growth involves replication of the viral DNA manyfold, assembly of bacteriophage particles, and cell lysis to release the new infectious bacteriophage particles. The bacteriophage particles can each package one entire viral genome of ~50Kb but not much more DNA than that. Use your knowledge of the regulation of the lambda gene expression to design a lambda cloning vector. The...

DNA Vaccines integrate into the host cell chromosome. They will then produce the proteins for immune response within the cell via the central dogma.How is this different from being infected by a DNA virus?

How long does it take to send a 15 MiB file from Host A to Host B over a circuit-switched network, assuming: - Total link transmission rate = 49.7 Gbps. - Network is FDM, with 7 permitted users, each with an equal bandwidth share. - A link connection requires a setup time of 84.5 ms. Your answer should be in miliseconds (ms) with one decimal place, and without the unit (e.g. "140.6" without the quotes)

Host A wants to send 15 frames to Host B using Selective repeat protocol. How many numbers of frames are transmitted by Host A if every 8th packet is lost or corrupted? Also compare the number of number of transmissions of Selective Repeat with Go Back 3.

1) In Drosophila, body colour is controlled by a gene on the X chromosome called yellow. It acts in a recessive manner. It causes the body to appear yellow rather than the normal brown of wildtypes. In a mating between a brown male fruit fly and a brown heterozygous female, what percentage of the male offspring is expected to be brown? Explain how you determined the percentage, specifying the genotypes of the parents and all potential offspring. For this question,...

Is everyone's paternal gene silenced because of imprinting in that section of chromosome 15 that causes angelman syndrome? (when the other parents gene is silenced and now there is no back up because of imprinting caused by methylation) I'm asking if every typical person has this imprinting for angelman syndrome and vice versa maternally for Prader-willie syndrome I'm getting confused while writing a report. (I need help as soon as possible because I'm writing a report for tomorrow). Thank you!...

Suppose the stock of Host Hotels & Resorts is currently trading for $ 15 per share. a. If Host issued a 20 % stock dividend, what will its new share price be? b. If Host does a 3 : 2 stock split, what will its new share price be? c. If Host does a 1 : 3 reverse split, what will its new share price be?
