Virus Replication Process
RNA viruses must convert their genetic material into DNA to replicate, a process that involves several complex steps. These viruses typically have minimal genomes, coding only for essential proteins needed to invade host cells and replicate using the host's cellular machinery. Interestingly, the smallest viruses can code for as few as two proteins, highlighting their efficiency in utilizing host resources.In this clip
