The enzyme is called reverse transcriptase.
The class of HIV drugs that block this process are called reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
You might be referring to the reverse-transcription that many retroviruses use (a virus with an RNA that turns into DNA). By using the enzyme reverse transcriptase, viruses like HIV can make a DNA from RNA template.
The enzyme that HIV uses to synthesize DNA on an RNA template is called reverse transcriptase. It catalyzes the conversion of viral RNA into DNA, which is an essential step in the HIV replication cycle.
Retroviruses such as HIV contain the enzyme called reverse transcriptase, which enables the synthesis of DNA from RNA. This DNA integrates into the host cell genome, allowing the virus to replicate and persist in the host.
RNA Polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes the formation of RNA from a DNA template during transcription.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus. A retrovirus is a RNA virus that replicates through a DNA intermediate. HIV synthesises DNA from RNA by the action of reverse transcriptase enzyme.
The enzyme that matches RNA nucleotides to complementary DNA nucleotides is called reverse transcriptase. It is used by retroviruses like HIV to convert their RNA genome into DNA before integrating it into the host cell's genome.
The enzyme needed to convert RNA into DNA in a process called reverse transcription is called reverse transcriptase. This enzyme is unique to retroviruses, such as HIV, which use it to convert their RNA genome into DNA once they infect a host cell.
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
The HIV virus is an RNA virus, so you know the sequence AUCUU is the RNA sequence. (You also know it is RNA because it contains uracil.) HIV is a retrovirus, so its RNA will be transcribed to DNA by the enzyme reverse transcriptase and then inserted into the host's genome. The RNA sequence of AUCUU would be transcribed to TAGTT.
The enzyme that manufactures DNA complementary to the virus's RNA is called reverse transcriptase. Reverse transcriptase converts the viral RNA into DNA, which can then be integrated into the host cell's genome. This process is a key step in the replication cycle of retroviruses like HIV.
The enzyme RNA polymerase transcribes DNA. This enzyme initiates transcription, joins the RNA nucleotides together, and terminates.
Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme that can convert RNA into DNA. It does this by using the RNA as a template to synthesize a complementary DNA strand. This process is called reverse transcription and is important in the replication of certain viruses, such as HIV.
