The enzyme RT of HIV-1 is responsible for copying the viral single-stranded RNA genome to double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the cytoplasm of infected cells. This 117-kDa heterodimeric (p66 and p51) ...

2021年10月29日 讯 /生物谷BIOON/ --端粒酶的催化亚单位—端粒酶反转录酶（TERT，Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase）在机体心血管系统中具有保护性功能，TERT不仅存在于细胞核中，还存在于线粒体中；然而，研究人员并不清楚细胞核或线粒体中的TERT是否与他们所观察到的 ...

Viral reverse transcriptase (RT) plays a critical role in replication (e.g., retroviruses, that reverse transcribe RNA templates into complementary DNA) and genome mutations (e.g., ...

Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia and affects more than a tenth of Americans aged 65 and older. The disease has proven difficult to develop new treatments for, and available ...

Researchers show that polymerase theta can efficiently convert RNA sequences back into DNA, a feat more common in viruses than eukaryotic cells. Editor's Note: Thomas Jefferson University issued the ...

New England Biolabs (NEB®) announced today that they have released a novel, thermostable reverse transcriptase, WarmStart® RTx Reverse Transcriptase, specifically designed for nucleic acid detection.

One of the hallmarks of many DNA polymerases is that they proofread as they copy DNA, ensuring high-fidelity duplicates of an organism’s genome. This error-checking ability is missing from enzymes ...

The global reverse transcriptase enzymes industry has witnessed remarkable growth and is anticipated to further expand, reaching a valuation of US$ 335.0 Million in 2022 and projected to escalate to ...

New Jersey : According to a study co-authored by a Rutgers researcher, the crystal structure of a human endogenous reverse transcriptase is comparable to HIV reverse transcriptase, a well-known ...

The mechanism of action of NNRTIs is illustrated in Figure 1. Reverse transcriptase catalyzes RNA-dependent and DNA-dependent polymerase activities, which are essential for viral DNA synthesis when ...

New research shows a transcriptase that helps time cell death varies in expression, and is unusually localized, in cancer cells. The transcriptase, Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT), is ...
