The enzyme in saliva that has been shown to inhibit the AIDS virus (HIV) is called lysozyme. Lysozyme has antimicrobial properties and can break down the protective cell walls of certain bacteria, which may also impact the virus. Additionally, saliva contains other components, like antibodies and various proteins, that contribute to its ability to inhibit viral activity. However, the effectiveness of saliva in completely blocking HIV transmission is limited, and it is not a substitute for preventive measures.
What else can I help you with?
A drug that is used to treat AIDS by blocking the production of an enzyme?
The drug you are referring to is likely to be a protease inhibitor. Protease inhibitors work by blocking the enzyme necessary for the replication of the virus that causes AIDS, which helps prevent the virus from multiplying and spreading within the body. By inhibiting this enzyme, protease inhibitors are able to slow down the progression of the disease and improve the immune status of individuals with AIDS.
The enzyme in the saliva is?
The enzyme in saliva is called amylase, which is responsible for breaking down complex carbohydrates such as starches into smaller, more easily digestible molecules like maltose. Amylase is produced by the salivary glands and begins to break down carbohydrates as soon as food enters the mouth. This is the first step in the process of digestion, which allows the body to extract the nutrients it needs from food.
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 is salivary maltase?
You might be referring to salivary amylase. Maltase is an enzyme produced by duodenum that breaks down the sugar maltose into glucose. Salivary amylase is an enzyme located in your saliva (there is also pancreatic amylase found in the pancreas). This enzyme breaks down carbohydrates (more specifically starch) which then can be absorbed in the small intestine.
What enzyme aids in the process of transcription?
RNA polymerase
Can AIDS enter the body from saliva to anus?
No; saliva does not have enough of the virus to transmit the infection. However, if blood is in the saliva, the virus can be transmitted.
Will you get aids from salivia?
No; saliva doesn't transmit the HIV virus.
What is a body fluid that is present in the mouth and does not transmit the AIDS virus?
Saliva.
Can you kiss a person who has HIV and AIDS?
No you will not as saliva does not have enough virus in it to transmit.
Woman giving head simultaniously to two guys at the same time Can his semen touching your penis during her giving oral infect you with aids Or does her saliva kill the virus if the other guy is infect?
saliva does not kill an aids virus.
A body fluid that present in the mouth and does not transmit the AIDs virus?
Saliva does not transmit HIV.
Can saliva causes HIV aids?
Yes, but it would take an ENORMOUS amount of saliva to transmit the virus. Like a few hundred gallons.
In What kind of body fluid HIV virus is not present?
Saliva has no Aids or HIV in an infected person but everything else can spread the virus.
Can saliva transmit aids?
No, not unless theres a cut in your mouth.

The aids virus a retrovirus uses what to read RNA and synthesize the corresponding DNA?
An enzyme called Reverse transcriptase.
How is HIV casued?
HIV does not refer to a disease, but a virus that in-turn causes the disease AIDS. HIV is transmissible via the blood and saliva.
