|
Term
|
Definition
| triangular sides that form the sides of a common capsid |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| protein building blocks of the capsid (shown as cone like structure) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| saves genetic material; same shape helps to support defective capsomeres |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| some capsids have as a thick outer cloak made out of pieces of cell membrane collected when the virus buds |
|
|
Term
|

Term
| If HIV were the size of a softball... |
|
Definition
| the host white blood cell would be the size of a classroom |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| when cell is invaded the cell's genetic code is copied into viral mRNA. When the mRNA travels to the ribosomes it directs the cell to create proteins for the virus' replication |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When virus infects a cell,it releases its RNA that attaches to ribsomes to be madeinto virus proteins |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| uses reverse transcriptase which converts viral RNA to viral DNA and viral DNA puts itself into host protein |
|

Term
|
Definition
| inside viral envelope, protects virus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| acts like a chemical scissor to cut viral proteins into usable lengths (eight filled in black) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| inserts the viral code into the hosts DNA (white oval) |

Term
|
Definition
| (traingle) converts viral RNA to vial DNA |
