- You are researching how the virus that you are studying spreads through a host. Which of the following assays would be the most advanced to evaluate viral spread in real-time? euthanization of SCID mice followed by dissection and flow cytometry euthanization of mice infected with engineered viruses that express reporter proteins and staining for protein expression euthanization followed by dissection and assaying for the virus in tissues MRI imaging of mice expressing viral constructs that express bioluminescencearrow_forwardWhich properties are targeted when scientists develop antiviral drugs? removal of viral MRNAS prevention of the host from becoming infected O removal of viral proteins interference with viral replicationarrow_forwardAn antimicrobial drug binds to the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme, preventing it from working. Which of the following is true of this drug? It would inhibit early replication steps of some viruses, but not affect normal eukaryotic cell activity. It would directly interfere with translation of some viral proteins and some eukaryotic proteins. It would block assembly/maturation steps of some viruses, and interfere with translation in eukaryotic cells. It would interfere with release of newly formed viruses from a host cell, but not affect eukaryotic cells. It would interfere with protein synthesis in bacteria, but not affect eukaryotic ribosomes. It would interfere with mRNA transcription in bacteria and viruses, but not affect eukaryotic transcription.arrow_forward

COVID-19 virus contains RNA, not DNA, as a genetic material. Immunity is a host defense system against disease and specifically recognizes external materials (non-self materials) and eliminate them. RNA vaccines are faster and cheaper to produce than traditional vaccines, and a RNA vaccine is safer for the patient as they do not contain infectious elements. HPV (human papilloma virus) vaccination is very effective in preventing cervical cancer and more than 80 % of Japanese has taken this vaccine. Edward Jenner first proposed protective vaccine against plague in the 18th century. Herd immunity protects infection of vaccinated population but not in the unvaccinated population.
