Assume you can fluorescently label one of the genome segments of the influenza virus and use a confocal microscope to image the location of the fluorescent label in the cell. If you allow the labeled virus to infect a cell line that permits proper trafficking of virus, but does not allow genome replication in which cellular compartment would you expect the fluorescent label to accumulate?
Pick the correct answer.
Nucleus, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Endosomes or Cytoplasm
Using the same method in the question above, where would you expect the fluorescent label to accumulate if cells were treated with a drug that inhibits the activity of the viral M2 ion channel?
Pick the correct answer:
Nucleus, Endosome, Cytoplasm, or Endoplasmic Reticulum
