Do viruses produce proteins?
Viruses hijack the cell and use the cell's machinery to produce proteins.
What are the DNA Translation enzymes?
To my knowledge there is no such thing as a DNA translation enzyme. DNA is not translated; it is transcribed. During transcription, RNA polymerases create mRNA molecules by reading off from the sequence of the DNA template strand. Then the mRNA molecule is translated by ribosomes that convert that use each successive codon of the mRNA sequence to code for a particular amino acid. This last process - the use of sequence information in mRNA to direct the synthesis of a polypeptide chain - that is translation and it does not involve DNA.
Does mRNA use thymine or adenine in its genetic code?
It will use adenine, but thymine will be replaced by a nitrogen base called "uracil" in mRNA
Who use the catalyst as an enzyme?
i use the catalyst as an enzyme. you should too. -peyton manning.
Why does a virus not have both DNA and RNA?
Because it doesn't use it's DNA or RNA to function, it uses it to inject into a cell and switch the cell's instructions to its own so the cell will make more viruses. Cells have DNA and RNA to tell the cell what to do, but viruses just do it naturally. Viruses have no use for both.
Does virus makes the cell it is in produce more viruses?
Yes, viruses use the cell that it has invaded to produce more viruses.
Do viruses produce proteins?
Viruses hijack the cell and use the cell's machinery to produce proteins.
Why do you classify viruses as obligatory intracellular parasite?
Viruses need living cells to produce more viruses. They are obliged to use living cells.
Why must animal use more energy to produce a second enzyme?
because there are animals
What does reverse transcriptase use from DNA?
Reverse transcriptase use mRNA to form DNA. mRNA

RNA viruses are also called?
Viruses with RNA as their genetic material are called retroviruses. They use the enzyme reversetranscriptase to transcribe their RNA genome into DNA, which is then inserted into the host's genome.
What does transcriptase use to form DNA?
Reverse transcriptase use mRNA to form DNA. mRNA
Do viruses use sexual reproduction?
Viruses are complex protein chains with DNA switch over within its core. It does not have independent sex cell gametes to produce sexually.
Do you use mrna codons or trna anticodons for coding chart to tell us what amino acids are coded in dna coding strand?
You use the mRNA. ;)
What organisms have operons?
Operons appear most in prokaryotes, however can also be found in some eukaryotic organisms such as the nematode. The nature of this is because operons produce polycistronic mRNA, which is used mostly by bacteria, whereas eukaryotes use monocistronic mRNA.
Can a virus release and use energy?
Virus particles have no metabolism and does not use energy. However, some viruses have kinetic energy stored in the high pressure inside them, this energy is released when they squirt their genome into the host cell. When they hijack the cell to make more viruses the cell will use energy to produce new viruses.
