Reverse transcriptase is a crucial enzyme used by HIV to convert its single-stranded RNA genome into double-stranded DNA. This DNA can then integrate into the host cell’s genome, leading to the establishment of a persistent infection. The reverse transcription step is an essential part of the HIV replication cycle, making reverse transcriptase an attractive target for antiviral drugs used in the treatment of HIV\/AIDS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Q.
