Answer:
The correct answer is B make cells produce a functional CFTR protein.
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis is a disease that is caused due to the mutation in the transmembrane protein known as cystic fibrosis trans membrane conductance regulator or CFTR. Cystic fibrosis trans membrane regulator proteins helps in the formation of thin mucus and due to the mutation in CFTR the mucus becomes thick.The disease cystic fibrosis basically affect the respiratory system.
If gene therapy is used to treat cystic fibrosis then it can replace the mutated CFTR gene with a functional one so that the cell containing CFTR gene can produce functional CFTR protein.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
Diagram is attached.
Capsid protein is a form of structural protein which usually forms part of a complex which later produces protective shell around the nucleic acid in a virus. It is also referred to as coat protein or head protein.
Capsid acts as a distinguishing feature for identifying an integrated viral genome, plasmids and other genetic material of viruses. In fact, viruses are termed as organisms that encode capsid proteins.
Hence, option D is correct
