| reverse transcription |
Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme used by all retroviruses and retrotransposons that transcribes the genetic information from the virus or retrotransposon from RNA into DNA, which can integrate into the host genome. Eukaryotes with linear DNA uses a variant of reverse transcriptase, called telomerase, with the RNA template contained in the enzyme itself. ...
