retroviruses Flashcards

1
Q

retroviral replication

A
  • replicate via dna intermediate
  • 2x stranded dna = integrated into host dna mediated by viral integrate, from this integrated ds dna have viral replication from and production of new viral proteins and new virions released from virally infected cells
