After transcription, there is _____ by host cell ribosome
Protein synthesis
After protein synthesis, there is assembly of the:
Virion
After assembly of the vision, the is ______ and release of the newly made virus

Acyclovir
Intracellular viral or cellular thymidine kinase adds:
First phosphate
Cellular kinases add two more phosphates to form:
TTP
TTP
Thymidine triphosphate
Herpes thymidine kinase will phosphorylate ____ deoxynucleoside including drugs (______ specificity)
