Bacterial reverse transcriptase and msDNA

Virus Genes, 1995
Retrons are a new class of genetic elements found in the chromosome of a large number of different bacteria. These elements code for a reverse transcriptase (RT) that is structurally similar to the polymerases of retroviruses. The retron associated RT is responsible for the production of an unusual extrachromosomal satellite DNA, known as multicopy ...

Discovery of the reverse transcriptase.

The FASEB Journal, 1995
1995 is the 20th anniversity of the award of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to David Baltimore and Howard Temin for the discovery of the reverse transcriptase. The prize was shared with Renato Dulbecco.

REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE

2005
Publisher Summary Transcription is the process by which a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) template codes for an ribonucleic acid (RNA) complement. It is because of the role of reverse transcriptase in RNA tumor virus replication, that reverse transcriptases are termed as retroviruses. The retroviruses as the family are comprised of a number of agents that

Inhibition of reverse transcriptases by flavonoids

Antiviral Research, 1989
Selected naturally occurring flavonoids were shown to inhibit three reverse transcriptases (RT): avian myeloblastosis (AMV) RT, Rous-associated virus-2 (RAV-2) RT and Maloney murine leukemia virus (MMLV) RT when poly (rA)oligo(dT)12-18 or rabbit globin mRNA were used as template.

Reverse transcriptase in a patient with scleroderma

Biochemical Medicine, 1979
Abstract Bone marrow from a 16-year-old patient with progressive systemic sclerosis was examined for reverse transcriptase. On two occasions particle-associated reverse transcriptase was present in her bone marrow. Associated immunological abnormalities suggest that retrovirus expression in this disease could result from a graft-versus-host reaction.

tRNAs as primer of reverse transcriptases

Biochimie, 1995
Genetic elements coding for proteins that present amino acid identity with the conserved motifs of retroviral reverse transcriptases constitute the retroid family. With the exception of reverse transcriptases encoded by mitochondrial plasmids of Neurospora, all reverse transcriptases have an absolute requirement for a primer to initiate DNA synthesis ...

Reverse Transcriptases and Ageing

Nature, 1971
REVERSE transcriptases introduce new possibilities not only in tumour research but in theoretical models of ageing. It would be of immediate interest to know whether finite clones lack, and virus-transformed “immortal” clones possess, enzymes of this sort.

New Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors [PDF]

, 1999
Reverse transcriptase inhibitors used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection include the nucleoside analogues zidovudine, didanosine, zalcitabine, lamivudine and stavudine. More recently a number of other classes of reverse transcriptase inhibitors have been discovered, and are in various phases of clinical trial. This chapter will focus on the nucleoside
