The HIV virus is the one which uses the reverse transcription to make copies of itself. It gives out genetic information that helps it quickly multiply once it is in a host body.

Retroviruses are so named because they?
because they reverse the usual DNA-to-RNA flow of genetic information in the process called transcription
Reverse transcription 5' to 3'?
In normal transcription DNA is converted to RNA .reverse transcription is nothing but RNA will be converted to DNA
What enzyme is used in reverse transcription?
reverse transcriptase
Which Enzyme is capable of reverse transcription?
Rna reverse transcriptase.
Is teminism is same as reverse transcription?
no, it is not.
What is the process by which RNA is synthesized from the DNA?
transcription... We are studying DNA and its processes in my Biology class
Does RNA enable expression of genetic information from DNA?
Yes, most virus use the enzyme reverse transcriptase to make RNA into DNA. Thus incorporating their DNA into the host cell. From then on, the cells own mechanism expresses the viral DNA thru transcription and translation.
What is the role of reverse transcriptase in hiv infection?
Reverse Transcription: Converting viral RNA into DNA
Why is transcription and translation important?
Transcription is when the "message" is copied from the DNA template to the mRNA molecule. The message will be 'in reverse' because the mRNA is made by stringing together the opposite base in the pair from what is coded in the DNA. When the mRNA in translated into amino acids, the message will be 'reversed' again to matching what the DNA strand stated.
Process of synthesizing an RNA strand from a DNA template strand?
The synthesis of mRNA from DNA is called transcription.
What is the process making RNA to DNA?
It is called reverse-transcription but the RNA is viral RNA and it infects the cell when it reverses to DNA.
What is is called when RNA copies to DNA?
When RNA's base sequence is used to determine the base sequence of a new strand of DNA, that is called reverse transcription.This is because the process is the reverse of transcription, which involves copying the base sequence of DNA to form RNA, including messenger RNA (mRNA).
