Respuesta :
Capsids help viruses enter cells, which is where the virus would reproduce. If viruses have a harder time getting into cells, they have a harder time reproducing.
Answer:
-Drug that damage capsid would lead to damage of virus's genetic material and prevent viral replication.
Explanation:
Capsid can be defined as a protective shell of viruses, made up of proteins. The main function of capsid is to protect the genetic material of viruses from nuclease enzymes and to provide attachment with host cell.
So, if a drug is used that damages viral capsid, genetic material would be cleaved by digested enzymes and virus will not be able to replicate and infect the host cells.
