Why is it ineffective to treat viral disease with antibiotics? Why is it ineffective to treat viral disease with antibiotics? Pa

thogenic RNA viruses have a high rate of mutation, producing new genetic varieties that are insensitive to antibiotic treatment. Due to excessive antibiotic use, most viruses have evolved to be resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotics inhibit enzymes specific to bacteria and have no effect on virally encoded enzymes.

Answer:

Antibiotics inhibit enzymes specific to bacteria and have no effect on virally encoded enzymes

Explanation:

Viruses can be inhibited by different approaches depending on the type of virus (viruses are classified into DNA or RNA viruses, single or double-stranded viruses, etc).

One of the most commonly used techniques to protect against viral infections is by vaccination

Answer:

Antibiotics inhibit enzymes specific to bacteria and have no effect on virally encoded enzymes

Explanation:

The specificity of the antibiotics to inhibits some  bacterial enzymes is one of the major reasons why antibiotic do not affect viruses.In addition  antibiotics are designed to  have a significant  destructive  effects on  the mechanisms of biochemical reactions in bacteria and its  physiology, e,g on the cells walls,( inhibiting the formation of peptydoglycans) on certain organelles e,g ribisomes (inhibiting protein synthesis) and on the DNA(disrupting replication). The virus physiology is different from bacteria, therefore the design of antibiotics will nor affect these same mechanisms in viruses, thus no specificity for the antibiotic to act on in virus

Genome

Explanation:

The genome of an organism is the summation of all the genes in the cells that hold information on how the organism is built and maintained. In higher organisms, the genome also contains non-coding regions that also play a significant role in the cells such as ensuring the integrity of chromosome ends. The genome of a human being is composed of approximately 3 billion base pairs.

The genome of organisms may not necessarily be found in the nucleus of cells, especially in eukaryotes,  but in addition can be found even in membrane-bound organelles like the mitochondria and chloroplast.
