Can some one answer this in paragraph form about HIV?


HIV has become one of the most feared diseases of the world community in the last few decades. Antiviral drugs have been developed that help treat the disease, although no cure has yet been found. Many phatmaceutical approaches are being investigated to battle the disease. Using what you know about how HIV infects human cells and the body's cellular structure, answer the following questions.

One possible way to combat HIV invasion of the cell is to develop a drug which could destroy the "envelope" that surrounds the HIV particle.

1.) Explain the function of this envelope and how the drug would help stop HIV infection.


2.) Why has this approach not been used on people?


3.) Explain the function of reverse transcriptase and how this drug would help stop HIV infection.

Is this your homework???
