Which combination of surface proteins identifies HLT (Human T-Lymphotrophic Virus) 1?
P24 & P19
P25 & P20
P26 & P21
HTLVII is a type C retrovirus
The new virus discovered reacted weakly with HTLV1 proteins, so what was concluded?
It was HTLV1
It was HTLVII
It was a new, related virus
What led to the discovery of P25 on the new virus?
Southern Blotting
Comparative electrophoresis
How was the virus isolated?
A fresh lymph node sample was transferred to an umbilical cord, proving it was a virus
A virus was photographed inside the cell using a TEM
A virus was isolated using a very small net
How was virus density determined?
A sucrose gradient that will cause the sample to separate due to density, isolating the virus
A fructose gradient that will cause the sample to separate due to density, isolating the virus
A glucose gradient that will cause the sample to separate due to density, isolating the virus
The virus had a density of 1.16
The use of 3HUridine in viral DNA indicated that it was an RNA virus
