    The document is a study guide for a final exam in BIO 330 that contains 8 questions about viral replication cycles, the advantages of replication in the nucleus, differences between retroviruses and RNA viruses, the functions of viral proteins, and strategies viruses use to encode multiple proteins. It asks about the replication cycles of RNA viruses, benefits of studying viral mutants, how influenza virus causes epidemics, how HIV is transmitted, differences between complex and simple retroviruses, the roles of early and late viral proteins and mRNAs, and disadvantages of viral polyproteins.

    Study Guide for BIO 330 Final Exam 1. Compare the replication cycles of the RNA-containing viruses.

    Why do certain viruses have replication prior to transcription whereas others have transcription before replication? 2. What are the advantages of replication in the nucleus? What virus families have we discussed that require nuclear events? 3. Why are retroviruses more like DNA viruses than lytic RNA-containing viruses? 4. What are the benefits of studying viral mutants? What is measured by recombination and complementation tests? 5. Why does influenza virus encode a hemagglutinin and a neuraminidase? How do these proteins contribute to the host response to the virus infection and the generation of an epidemic? 6. Describe the major ways that HIV can be transmitted? How are complex retroviruses different from simple retroviruses? 7. What are late and early proteins and mRNAs? What types of functions do they serve? 8. What major virus families use polyprotein precursors to encode several proteins? What is the disadvantage of encoding polyproteins?
