Question
Chapter 38.1, Problem 1MI
Summary Introduction
To determine: The location where the viruses reside during latent infection.
Introduction: Viruses can be defined as cellular organisms that are obligate intracellular parasites. Viruses lack many cellular organelles but have genetic material and protein core. These organisms cannot replicate by themselves, so they require a host cellular machinery to reproduce.
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether virions can be detected during latent infection.
Introduction: Virions are the complete virus particles, containing the protein coat,
