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
Do retroviruses contain DNA for their genetic material?
Retrovirus utilize an enzyme to produce DNA from their RNA, which can be inserted into the host genome.
RNA can manufacture DNA via the action of what?
Reverse transcription is a process where a reverse transcriptase enzyme is used to generate complementary DNA from an RNA template. It is needed for the replication of retroviruses.
Which enzyme are retroviruses equiped with that allows them to transcribe DNA from an RNA template?
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.
Why are the virus proteins important?
They form the capsid that encloses the genetic material and retroviruses contain the protein enzyme reverse transcriptase. Also the proteins, especial glycoproteins, are the key that enters the lock of a cells protein markers.
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
What do you call the enzyme contained in lacrimal secretion?
You call that enzyme as 'Lysozyme'.
A key enzyme utilized by an RNA virus is what?
Some retroviruses may utilize a special enzyme known as reverse transcriptase, which a RNA virus can use to make DNA using the RNA as a template.
Do retroviruses contain DNA for their genetic material?
Retrovirus utilize an enzyme to produce DNA from their RNA, which can be inserted into the host genome.
What is a virus molecule of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat?
The retroviruses are enveloped viruses that have two complete copies of RNA. They also contain the enzyme reverse transcriptase.
What is a virus that contains RNA as its gentic information?
These types of viruses are known as retroviruses. Retroviruses such as (HIV) use RNA to house their genetic material, once they enter a host cell an enzyme known as reverse transriptase to turn the RNA into DNA so it may infect the DNA of the host cell.
RNA can manufacture DNA via the action of what?
Reverse transcription is a process where a reverse transcriptase enzyme is used to generate complementary DNA from an RNA template. It is needed for the replication of retroviruses.
What viral rna uses the normal processes of a cell to manufacture?
That's what retroviruses do. They use the host cell's reverse transcriptase enzyme to manufacture DNA from the virus' RNA
What enzyme contained in saliva helps breakdown starch?
Salivary amylase.
Which enzyme are retroviruses equiped with that allows them to transcribe DNA from an RNA template?
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.
What virus DNA or RNA must supply its own enzyme to replicate or reproduce?
Retroviruses. They have genetic material of RNAand need the enzyme reverse transcriptase to transcribe a DNA strand from their RNA genetic material. Then another strand and then this is inserted into the hosts DNA to begin a lysogenic cycle.
Do retroviruses cause Hepititis B?
yes retroviruses cause hepatitis b,they are RNA virus .
