Facets:
Source sentences:
text: Enveloped viruses can enter the host by fusion with the host membrane to release their genetic material into the cytoplasm, while naked viruses must enter a cell through endocytosis by the host cell.
text: RNA viruses must first transcribe RNA to DNA and then insert the genetic material into the host cell's DNA.
text: They consist of genetic material, RNA or DNA, surrounded by a coat of protein, lipid (fat), or glycoprotein.
text: After contacting a host cell, a virus will insert genetic material into the host and take over that host’s functions.
text: After infecting the cell, the virus continues to reproduce, but it produces more viral protein and genetic material instead of the usual cellular products.
text: A virus is genetic material contained within an organic particle that invades living cells and uses their host's metabolic processes to produce a new generation of viral particles.
text: They are made of genetic material inside of a protein coating.
text: First, they alter the viruses to deliver genetic material to a cell.
text: The virus injects its genetic material into the cell and uses the cell's organelles to replicate.
text: At a basic level, viruses are proteins and genetic material that survive and replicate within their environment, inside another life form.
text: When a virus infects a host cell, it uses its genetic material to “hijack” the ribosomes in the host cell.
text: When it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host's functions.
text: On the other hand, because viruses can transfer genetic material between different species of host, they are extensively used in genetic engineering.
text: Viruses also carry out natural "genetic engineering": a virus may incorporate some genetic material from its host as it is replicating, and transfer this genetic information to a new host, even to a host unrelated to the previous host.
text: they have genetic material: DNA or RNA.
text: This merger allows the virus to release its genetic material and hijack the cell's internal machinery.
text: The images showed that viruses are simple structures made of genetic material wrapped in a solid coat of protein molecules—a far cry from squishy, cellular bacteria.
text: Viruses are sometimes considered to be a life form, because they carry genetic material, reproduce and evolve through natural selection.
text: Viruses insert their genetic material into a human cell’s DNA in order to reproduce.
text: The virus injects its genetic material into the cell and uses the cell's organelles to replicate.
text: When a virus infects a host cell, it uses its genetic material to “hijack” the ribosomes in the host cell.
text: Viruses reproduce first either by injecting their genetic material into the host cell or by fully entering the cell and shedding their protein coat.
text: When it comes into contact with a host cell, a virus can insert its genetic material into its host, literally taking over the host's functions.
text: They use RNA as their genetic material and are named for a special enzyme that’s a vital part of their life cycle — reverse transcriptase.
text: Thus, in these cases if one takes as a given the length of DNA which is tied in turn to the number of genes that viruses must harbor, the viruses show strong economy of size, minimizing the required volume to carry their genetic material.
text: If an organism like a virus incorporates a nucleoside analogue into its genetic material, rather than the real thing, even small changes to the structure of these building blocks prevent the regular chemistry from happening and ultimately foils the ability of the virus to replicate.
text: As a result, they are known as direct-acting antivirals, and this is the case for Remdesivir, which works by blocking the coronavirus’s RNA polymerase – one of the key enzymes that this virus needs to replicate its genetic material (RNA) and proliferate in our bodies.
text: Viruses are small obligate intracellular parasites with either a RNA or DNA genome that are surrounded by a protective protein coat and transfer their genetic material to infected cells.
text: Viruses insert their genetic material into a human cell’s DNA in order to reproduce.
