You decide to use a plaque assay with a human lung epithelial cell line to compare the effectiveness of the drug. The results of the plaque assay for one strain of influenza are shown below. Based on these results, what can you conclude about the relative effectiveness of WJ379 at 1 mM compared to oseltamivir at 1 mM? Briefly explain your rationale.
Describe: a.) the mechanism of action of PF-07321332, the active compound found in the antiviral drug Paxlovid; b.) the viral target that it inhibits; and c.) the product formed. Use schemes where appropriate to support your answer. H H" H NH NH PF-07321332 F
Select the most accurate answer: Adenoviruses are useful in research interest, select that applies:A. Adenovirus vectors are the most commonly employed vector for cancer gene therapy (edit gene, to introduce oligopeptides for oncolytic virotherapies)B. Adenovirus vectors can be replication-defective (serotype 5); certain essential viral genes are deleted and replaced by a cassette that expresses a foreign therapeutic geneC. Adenoviruses are powerful research tools for investigating virological and cellular events(gene expression) and carriers for new vaccines, such as vaccines against SARS-CoV 2D. the most commonly used adenoviral vectors are derived from human adenovirus serotypes 2 and 5 for in vitro and in vivo gene deliveryE. All of the above
