Which is the enzyme that HIV uses to synthesize DNA on an RNA template?
This is reverse transcriptase. HIV drugs that block this part of the HIV lifecycle are called reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
What are non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors?
delavirdine (Rescriptor), loviride, and nevirapine (Viramune) act by binding directly to the reverse transcriptase molecule, inhibiting its activity.
What enzyme turns HIV rna into HIV DNA?
The enzyme is called reverse transcriptase. The class of HIV drugs that block this process are called reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
How many drugs have been approved for use against HIV?
There is no cure for HIV, however the drug classes that are used to treat HIV are Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), Protease inhibitors (PIs), Entry or fusion inhibitors, and Integrase inhibitors
What is a calanolide?
A calanolide is any of a family of reverse transcriptase inhibitors extracted from trees of the genus Calophyllum.
What enzyme is contained in retroviruses?
reverse transcriptase :)
What services does ViiV Healthcare provide?
Viiv Healthcare provides several products and services for HIV treatment. They provide nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors such as Combivir and Epivir and protease inhibitors such as Lexiva and Viracept.
What enzyme do viruses use to produce m-RNA?
reverse transcriptase
What enzyme is used in reverse transcription?
reverse transcriptase
AZT is used for?
AZT is a medication used to treat AIDS.It belongs to a class of drugs called Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTI) that work by inhibiting Reverse Transcriptase, which is an enzyme that converts the virus's RNA into DNA. If the HIV cell is unable to create DNA inside a healthy cell, HIV cannot infect the cell.
Retroviruses such as HIV contains what enzyme that enables DNA to be synthesized from rna?
by using reverse transcriptase to help produce double stranded DNA from viral RNA
Which Enzyme is capable of reverse transcription?
Rna reverse transcriptase.
