This was an animation I created for a Flash project at Uni to spread the message of the devestating effects of deforestation. Enjoy!

The example used is the HIV Lentivirus. This video does a great job describing “complex” retrovirus transcription in a visually appealing way that is suffici…

I am going to have to show this to Emira…I think she will like it. And a good chance to teach her about deforestation.?

3:50 Does those virtal proteins are like the Hemagglutinin from Flu Virus?? or the proteins are all different with each virus?

1.Get? retroviri
2.Program retroviri to kill cancer cells
3.????

They don’t.
They just bounce around until they hit something that they react with, and from there it’s a whole bunch of structures gaining entropy.
The only information processing that occurs is the? reading of DNA.

So complex, yet so simple, I often? wonder, what drives these things, how do they know what to do?

So it carries keys, the keys allow excess and the? virus and cell thus become one.. wow, mind blowing.

The amino? acids and polysaccharides necessary to build the DNA strands float freely in the cytoplasm and are collected by the transcriptase structures that match it to the components of the viral RNA.

at 2:16, where does the DNA (the blue things) come from??

This? is a multi-faceted question and thus has multiple explanations. One explanation is that HIV’s reverse transcriptase and DNA replication process is highly mutagenic (i.e. extremely low fidelity). Up to 10 INCORRECT nucleotides or base-pairs can be incorporated into HIV’s DNA during EACH round of replication. Due to these errors, HIV can mutate into a highly drug-sensitive and drug-resistance virion. Additionally, the majority, if not all of these drugs are virostatic and not virucidal.

Question– If we know how we can block HIV replication? then what’s the problem. Is it too difficult or not efficient enough?

Fantastic video. The sub-titles are hilarious: Integrase became ‘injuries’ and protease became ‘appreciates’.?

SO it prevents the reproduction, but what about KILLING the Virus??
