What is the nucleic acid of a virus stored in?
The nucleic acid of a virus is stored in its viral capsid or envelope. The capsid or envelope protects the genetic material of the virus and helps it enter host cells to replicate.
What are nucleic acid molecules used to deliver new genes to cells called?
Nucleic acid molecules used to deliver new genes to cells are called vectors. These vectors can be viruses (viral vectors) or artificially constructed pieces of DNA or RNA (non-viral vectors), and are essential for gene therapy research and applications.
What is the acidic polymer of nucleotides that found in the nucleus that function in heredity and protein synthesis?
Nucleic Acid
What kind of acid is in a molecule that carries a genetic information?
Nucleic acids:Deoxyribose Nucleic AcidRibose Nucleic Acid
What nucleic acids are involved in transcription?
Deoxyribose nucleic acid, transcribed into, Ribose nucleic acid.
How is the viral nucleic acid core different from the nucleicid of the bacterial host?
The viral nucleic acid core is composed of the genetic material specific to the virus and is often surrounded by a protein coat. In contrast, the nucleic acid of the bacterial host is the genetic material of the host bacterium and is usually localized within the bacterial cell. Additionally, bacterial nucleic acid is typically organized within a nucleoid region in the bacterial cytoplasm.
What is a nucleic acid coated with a protein?
A viral nucleic acid coated with a protein is called a capsid. The capsid helps protect the nucleic acid and aids in the virus's ability to infect a host cell.
What type of vaccine involves host synthesis of viral antigens?
A nucleic acid vaccine
What part of the HIV virus serves to protect the nucleic acid core?
viral load
Which is a function of nucleic acid?
regulate cell processes
Do host cells give energy for new viral proteins and nucleic acid to be made?
yes
Where do viral particles get the materials for the protein - and nucleic acid - synthesis that they need to perform?
To carry out their Viral processes they 'utilize' the resources of The Host Cell.
What is the function of nucleic acid in the cell?
continue the genetic life
What is the nucleic acid of a virus stored in?
The nucleic acid of a virus is stored in its viral capsid or envelope. The capsid or envelope protects the genetic material of the virus and helps it enter host cells to replicate.
What is the nucleic acid core in a virus called?
the "core" of a virus is the nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA) that makes up the viral genome. this core contains all the genetic information of that virus, and is enclosed within the protein coat known as the capsid.
What the molecule that carries the instructions for growth and function of a cell?
Nucleic acid
Whats the structure and function of nucleic acid in a polypeptide?
It transmits genetic information.
