Where does viral assembly typically happen in an infected cell?

What is the primary mode of virus release and transmission for enveloped viruses?

Which viral infection was associated with microcephaly in infants during the Brazil epidemic of 2016?

What type of receptor initiates the penetration of viral particles into cells during virus entry?

Why are RNA viruses considered an exception to the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology?

What is responsible for the replication of genetic material in dsDNA gapped viruses?

Which organelle plays a role in viral assembly and maturation for enveloped viruses?

Viral proteins responsible for directing assembly and budding are not involved in membrane curvature.

Exosomes are not associated with non-lytic viral egress.

Antivirals can target only one step in the viral transmission process.

HIV Budding Assembly is unrelated to the formation of lentivirus nucleocapsid linked to the budding process.

During the maturation phase of the viral life cycle, new virus particles (virions) are formed before release occurs.

Viruses can 'grow' in the same way as cells do.

The attachment phase of the viral life cycle involves the manufacture of viral components such as viral proteins and new genetic materials.

Viruses rely on their host cell to provide the necessary tools for their replication and assembly.

Viral egress by the formation of double-membrane vesicles is a characteristic of all types of viruses.

The penetration phase of the viral life cycle occurs after the manufacture of viral proteins and genetic materials.

All viruses on the planet follow the rule of making mRNA that can be read by host ribosomes, with no known exception?

The cytoplasm is an easy environment for viruses to penetrate due to its spacious nature?

Retroviruses can bind to 16 different receptors?

Flaviviruses like Zika virus replicate their genetic material in the cell nucleus?

Herpes simplex viruses utilize DNA dependent RNA polymerase encoded by host cells for replication of their genetic material?

Virus budding by cellular exocytosis involves the formation of double-membrane vesicles?

All (+) RNA is mRNA?

Influenza virus, a ss (-) RNA virus, can replicate its genetic material in both cytoplasmic and nuclear environments?

Virus assembly and budding typically occur in the cell membrane?

RNA viruses are considered an exception to the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology because their molecular biology does not involve DNA?

Viral genomes can fall into any of the seven classes of viral genomes based on their structure?

Viral release by cellular exocytosis often involves the use of the secretory pathway for assembly, maturation, and egress from the cell?
