In the host cell. The virus generally enters the host cell by carrying markers on it's surface that allows entry into the host cell. There the virus, which has it's own reverse transcriptase enzymes, uses free nucleotides in the host's cytoplasm to create a strand of DNA from the RNA template using the reverse transcriptase. Transcription. The virus then runs off another strand of DNA and, generally, inserts this into the host's DNA. When the virus is going to reproduce this double stranded insertion then transcribes a mRNA strand for the cellular machinery to translate with the cells own ribosomes. Then the virus, completed, exist the cell and generally lysis it.
What else can I help you with?
What two processes must occur to get from a gene to a protein?
The process by which a gene is read is through transcription and occurs through the activity of an enzyme called RNA polymerase II in the nucleus. This results in the formation of molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is then translated into a string of amino acids or protein by transfer RNA (tRNA) on ribosomes outside the nucleus in the cytoplasm.
What is needed for translation and transcription to occur?
For translation to occur, ribosomes, messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and amino acids are essential components. Transcription requires DNA, RNA polymerase, and nucleotides to synthesize RNA from a DNA template. Both processes also depend on various initiation, elongation, and termination factors to ensure accurate synthesis of proteins from genetic information.
What is a non-retroviral virus?
Retroviruses are a class of RNA virus that use Reverse transcription to convert their RNA to DNA for their infection.
The process of assembling a protein form RNA is called?
The process of assembling a protein from RNA is called translation. During translation, the information encoded in the RNA is decoded by ribosomes to synthesize a specific protein according to the sequence of nucleotides in the RNA.
Does transcription occur in DNA or RNA?
Transcription occurs in DNA to produce mRNA.
Is the process in which DNA's genetic code is copied onto messenger RNA molecules known as translation?
No, the process in which DNA's genetic code is copied onto messenger RNA molecules is known as transcription, not translation. Translation is the process in which the mRNA is read by ribosomes to synthesize proteins.
Translation is to protein as transcription is to?
Translation is to protein as transcription is to RNA. Transcription is the process by which RNA is synthesized from DNA, while translation is the process by which proteins are synthesized from RNA.

The copying of the DNA code onto RNA is called?
The copying of the DNA code onto RNA is called transcription. During transcription, the gene sequence is "read" by RNA polymerase, leading to the synthesis of messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules that carry the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
Does transcription occur in the nucleus or at the nucleoid?
Transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotic cells, where DNA is transcribed into RNA. In prokaryotic cells, transcription occurs at the nucleoid, which is the region where the genetic material is located.
Compare and contrast transcription and translation?
Transcription is the process of copying DNA into RNA, while translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the RNA template. Transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotic cells, while translation takes place in the cytoplasm. Transcription involves the enzyme RNA polymerase, while translation involves ribosomes and transfer RNA molecules.
What are the end results in transcription and translation?
Transcription results in the synthesis of a complementary RNA molecule from a DNA template. Translation involves the conversion of this RNA molecule into a specific sequence of amino acids, forming a protein. The end result of translation is the production of a functional protein that can perform specific cellular functions.
What is a non-retroviral virus?
Retroviruses are a class of RNA virus that use Reverse transcription to convert their RNA to DNA for their infection.

Where does RNA go after transcription is completed?
After transcription is completed, RNA goes through a process called RNA processing, where it is modified and prepared for translation. The processed RNA then leaves the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm, where it can be used to make proteins during translation.
Does transcription occur in DNA or RNA?
Transcription occurs in DNA to produce mRNA.
