It tampers with translation/transcription machinery
It prevents proteins from folding properly
Question 5
Question
Can viruses pick up human genes, and would it be dangerous?

Yes- they would cause over-expression of the gene as they replicated
Yes- they would potentially gain the ability to better survive inside the cell
No
