What molecular mechanisms allow these viruses to use RNA as their genetic material instead of DNA? Single-stranded viral RNA can be transcribed by reverse transcriptase. Viral RNA can act like mRNA and be translated into viral proteins by the host cell. The viral particle is covered by a mix of viral RNA and glycoproteins Viral RNA catalyzes all of the reactions necessary for viral replication. Double-stranded RNA is used to generate mRNA that is translated into viral proteins. O Previous Give Up & View Solution Check Answer 0 Next Hint Exit

Explanation / Answer

Option A, b and e

Note - the viral rna which can be directly be translated into proltein are called as positive sense single stranded rna virus .

The retrovirus carry reverse transcriptase enzyme for dna formation

And the double stranded virus can form mrna out of it and can be tranlated .
