Question 1
The ultimate aim that any virus must develop is the ability to replicate. Although viruses have evolved a number of strategies to achieve this aim, these strategies often utilize common mechanisms. Read the review paper by Paul Ahlquist describing parallels in the replication mechanisms of various RNA viruses. Describe at least two parallels between two of the types of viruses described in the paper.
Question 2
The 2009 H1N1 pandemic influenza has evolved to better replicate in human host cells. Read the Science Daily article and the primary article (Mehle et al.) on how the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus has adapted for replication in humans. What two mechanisms of generating diversity are utilized by the 2009 H1N1 virus? How are the changes that have allowed the 2009 H1N1 to adapt to human cells different to the changes in the 1918 Influenza virus?
Question 3
The unique replication and integration properties of retroviruses require a number of enzymatic activities not required by other RNA viruses. Describe the functions of the unique enzymatic activities of retroviruses, the cellular sites of these enzymatic activities and additional host proteins that are specifically required for retrovirus replication and integration.
Question 4
Describe the mechanisms for generating diversity in RNA viruses. Give examples of at least two of the mechanisms in a specific RNA virus.
Question 5
Read the review entitled "RNA Virus Replication Complexes" by Tao & Ye. Choose one of the following: (+) RNA Viruses, (-) RNA viruses or dsRNA virus and describe the location in the cell of its replication complex and the mechanism by which replication occurs and why this location/mechanism is advantageous to the virus.
From this information, calculate the original water potential, osmotic potential and pressure potential of the epidermal cells, In .1M mannitol the epidermal cells neither gain nor lose weight
How did the rmp change with the low na ecf solution. Discuss at least three practical, scientific, and ethical issues that may be raised by such a change in naming.
Explain why proteins are superior to both RNA and DNA for structural and enzymatic function?
You are given the tasks to isolate a hypertermophile and a psychophile bacterium. Where would you buy your plane tickets to and why?
What factors of the environment and/or biology of the birds pictured lead to similarities/ differences?
Assume a plant with genotype GgRr is crossed to the pure breeding green, smooth parental strain. Use a forkedline diagram to forecast the phenotypic distribution.
The following 3-recessive genes are found in corn. Brittle endosperm, glossy leaf, and ragged seedling. A tri-hybrid is test-crossed producing the following offspring.
Goldfish skin and chicken egg yolks typically have a yellow, orange, or reddish-orange color. However, these tissues are practically colorless if the respective animal is not permitted to eat photosynthetic plant tissue. Propose a hypothesis to ex..
A mainland population of 10,000 ground beetles have the neutral alleles A1 and A2 with frequencies of A1 = 0.4 and A2 = 0.6. 16 male and 20 female beetles found a new population on Russell Island.
1. The molecular weight of BSA is 35,000 g/mol. You have a 2% solution of BSA. You want to make 0.25 mg/ml of BSA, and you need 1 mL of this diluted solution. How much BSA and how much water will you use?
Two parents who are each known to be carriers of an autosomal recessive allele have four children. None of the children has the recessive condition.
