Question

Which of the following is NOT a method used by RNA viruses to produce several different proteins from a single RNA molecule? A) generation of single-ORF mRNAs by pausing of the polymerase after each ORF, release of the completed mRNA and re-initiation on the next ORF B) cleavage of a full-length positive-sense RNA into individual mRNAs prior to translation C) initiation of transcription of a negative-sense RNA at two or more sites D) translation of a single ORF, followed by proteolytic cleavage of the protein into several proteins Save

Explanation / Answer

1. A is not true. A single ORF is transcribed then alternative proteins are formed.

2. Cell lysis.
