What is the type of virus that codes backwards from RNA to DNA?
That is called a retrovirus. The enzyme used to code in that direction is called reverse transcriptase.
What type of pathogen is HIV?
HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, is itself a pathogen.HIV is a virus.HIV itself is a pathogen Human Immunodeficiency virus cause HIV/AIDS disease it belongs to retro virus which has ability to convert mRNA to DNA the reverse transcription and possess reverse transcriptase enzyme
How are provirus and retrovirus the same?
A retrovirus is a virus that injects RNA into the cell, the RNA then goes through reverse-transcription. It gets turned into DNA and splices with the host cells DNA. Then the cell will make more RNA and produce protien. A provirus just injects DNA and either goes through the lytic cycle or the lysogenic cycle.
Does a polio virus contain DNA or RNA?
The influenza virus contains Both DNA and RNA.Its an exception.
What is inside a flu virus?
Technically, viruses are not alive, thus they are not a cell. You may be referring to the protein capsid in which the nucleic acid of the virus is enclosed in. The contents of the capsid may vary depending on the virus, but it can be ssDNA, dsDNA, ssRNA, or dsRNA.
What type of virus contains reverse transcriptase and what type of nucleic acid does this virus type contain?
It contains retroviruses, like HIV and it also contains RNA nucleic acids.
What is the type of virus that codes backwards from RNA to DNA?
That is called a retrovirus. The enzyme used to code in that direction is called reverse transcriptase.
What type of pathogen is HIV?
HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, is itself a pathogen.HIV is a virus.HIV itself is a pathogen Human Immunodeficiency virus cause HIV/AIDS disease it belongs to retro virus which has ability to convert mRNA to DNA the reverse transcription and possess reverse transcriptase enzyme
What proteins come packaged in the virus?
The packaging and maturation of the HIV-1 Pol proteins. The Pol protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) harbours the viral enzymes critical for viral replication; protease (PR), reverse transcriptase (RT), and integrase (IN)
What type of organism is AIDS?
AIDS is a retrovirus. RNA, two reverse transcriptase, a protein capsid, a membrane coat studded with glycoproteins.
How are provirus and retrovirus the same?
A retrovirus is a virus that injects RNA into the cell, the RNA then goes through reverse-transcription. It gets turned into DNA and splices with the host cells DNA. Then the cell will make more RNA and produce protien. A provirus just injects DNA and either goes through the lytic cycle or the lysogenic cycle.
What type of computer virus is most common?
The Macro virus is the most common type of computer virus. The ILOVEYOU virus is one example of this type of virus which hides in a document or spreadsheet.
What type of virus is smallpox?
variola virus
Is a virus pathogenic?
A Virus IS a type of Pathogen.
What type of virus kills batcteria?
The type of virus that kills bacteria is the bacteriophage.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus is considered what type of virus?
retro virus
What is RNA virus and its type and species?
A RNA virus is an virus that contains either an single-strand of RNA (ssRNA) or a double strand of RNA (dsRNA) as their genome. Some families of RNA viruses include: Reovirus (dsRNA), Picornavirus (ssRNA), Coronavirus (dsRNA), Flavivirus (dsRNA) and Togavirus (dsRNA) As for type, I'm unfortunately unsure as to what you're referring to.
