Which component of the HPV vaccine stimulates the production of antibodies?
The external viral proteins of the HPV vaccine.
What occurs during viral uncoating?
During viral uncoating, the viral capsid is disassembled, releasing the viral genome into the host cell. This process allows the viral genome to access the host cell's machinery for replication and production of new virus particles.
What makes copies of viral DNA?
During the process of viral replication, the virus uses host cells to produce copies of its viral DNA. This process typically involves the virus injecting its genetic material into the host cell's nucleus, where it hijacks the cell's machinery to replicate its DNA. This results in the production of multiple copies of the viral DNA, which can then be packaged into new viral particles.
What are virus factories called?
Virus factories are commonly referred to as "viral factories" or "viral replication centers." These are specialized cellular compartments where viruses replicate and assemble new viral particles. They often exploit host cellular machinery and resources to facilitate the production of new viruses, ultimately leading to their release from the infected cell.
What is the role of immune electron microscopy in viral diseases?
can be used to detect and identify viral particles that have too low concentration to be detected using conventional electron microscopy. binding of antibodies to the viral particles makes them easier to detect.
How are viral infections diagnosed?
Viral Infections are diagnosed by the presence of the immune systems production of antibodies, viral fighting cells produced specifically for that specific virus.
Describe the last stage before escape of a viral infection?
assembly of the virus particles and post-translational modification of the viral proteins.
What two processes are directed by viral genes that are activated inside the host cell?
Replication and assembly of new viral particles are processes directed by viral genes that are activated inside the host cell. The viral genes hijack the host cell machinery to produce more virus particles and assemble them before releasing them to infect other cells.
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.
Would A virologist would likely be able to see viral particles with a light microscope?
No, viral particles are generally too small to be seen with a light microscope, which has a limited resolution of around 200 nanometers. Virologists typically use electron microscopes, which have much higher resolution, to observe and study viral particles.
Which events occurs in the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection but not in the lysogenic cycle?
In the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection, the viral DNA takes control of the host cell machinery to replicate and assemble new viruses, leading to cell lysis and release of viral particles. This process does not involve integration of the viral DNA into the host genome, which is a key characteristic of the lysogenic cycle.
What describes the number of virus particles circulating in an infected person?
Viral load is the term used to describe the number of virus particles circulating in an infected person. It is an important measure of virus replication and infectivity. Tracking viral load levels can help in monitoring disease progression and response to treatment.
