QUESTION 2 Latent herpesviruses exist inside cells as nothing more than a loop of herpesvirus DNA. The viruses do not express their genetic material. How does this help them avoid the action of your T cells? O Because no viral proteins are being made, there are no viral proteins displayed on the surface of an infected cell. Tc can't find the infected cells. O Most likely herpesviruses can only infect Tc in the first place, and they cause your Tc to die. O There are no viral proteins for antibodies (synthesized by Tc) to bind to. QUESTION 3 Cold sores around the mouth are caused by a herpesvirus, HSV-1. Given that HSV-1 seldom produces lesions in any place other than near the mouth, it makes sense that HSV-1s is latent in O white blood cells. O liver cells. O nerves that innervate skin near the mouth.

Adapting to Host Defenses Surface proteins called HLAs allow white blood cells to detect HIV particles and fight an infection. In a recent study, scientists tested whether HIV is adapting to this host defense. They did so by looking at the frequency of a specific mutation (1135X) in HIV. This escape mutation helps the virus avoid detection by a version of the HLA protein (HLA-B51) that is common in some regions of the world, but not in others. FIGURE 20.19 shows the percentage of HIV-positive people who had HIV with the 1135X mutation. Data were collected at medical centers from several parts of the world. FIGURE 20.19 Regional variation in the frequency of the 1135X escape mutation among HIV-positive people. For each region, pink bars represent the percentage of people whose blood cells have HLA-B51. and thus cannot detect 1135X mutants. Blue bars represent the percentage of people with other versions of the HLA protein. These people have blood cells that can detect and fight HIV even if it has the 1135X mutation. 1. What percentage of people with H LA-B51 in Vancouver had HIV with the escape mutation for this protein?

Japan has a high frequency of HLA-B51; about half the population has it. How might this explain the high frequency of the 1135X mutation in Japanese with other HLAs?

Viruses can easily mutate exchange genetic material, mechanisms referred to as antigenic drift and antigenic shift. These changes allow the virus to evade the immune system defenses. Match each term with the correct definition Antigenic drift [ Choose ] [Choose ] Different strains of a virus or strain of different viruses, combine and form a new strain that now has a mixture of the surface antigens Antigenic shift The virus changes genetically by accumulating mutations within the genes that code for antibody-binding sites

Your friend hasn't been feeling well, and you think that she should get tested because it could be a virus or even multiple viruses! Nancy is conducting a qPCR experiment to detect how much of virus A, B, and/or C your friend is infected with. All three viruses contain RNA as their genetic material. Nancy takes a saliva sample and is excited to begin. However, it's her very first time conducting qPCR so a few mishaps occurred during this experiment. Unfortunately... ● Nancy forgets to reverse transcribe the RNA of virus A, and • The cDNA of virus C contains a mutation where the probe is designed to bind, and • Nancy uses the same color fluorescent dye for viruses B and C Fortunately, all the probes consisted of a fluorescent and quenching dye. Which qPCR graph is most representative of Nancy's experiment after several cycles of qPCR? Explain why the answer you chose is correct. A. (₁ Fluorescence B B # of Cycles A A # of Cycles с B. D.

CAN Corynebacterium diphtheriae be infected by a viruses. I know it is a bacteria but I need to know if it is possible for it to be infected by a virus. Please be specific but in terms that is easy to understand. PLEASE answer this specif question. I don't need to know the causes, effects, outcomes, etc of Corynebacterium diphtheriae. I already know that stuff, I need this specific question answered. THANK YOU.
