Zinc in reverse transcriptase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1974
Summary Purified DNA polymerase (“reverse transcriptase”) from avian myeloblastosis virus was analyzed for zinc by atomic absorption spectroscopy. Tightly bound zinc was present in a stoichiometry approximating 1 gm atom/mole of enzyme. Inhibition by the chelating agent, ortho -phenanthroline, and lack of inhibition by its non-chelating analog ...

Reverse transcriptase in bacteria

Molecular Microbiology, 1989
SummaryReverse transcriptase, discovered in 1970 in retroviruses, has until recently been found only in eukaryotic organisms. Recently it was shown to occur in two groups of bacteria: myxobacteria and Escherichia coli. The gene for reverse transcriptase is part of a chromosomal genetic element that codes for the production of a branched DNA‐RNA ...

Retroviral reverse transcriptases

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2010
Reverse transcription is a critical step in the life cycle of all retroviruses and related retrotransposons. This complex process is performed exclusively by the retroviral reverse transcriptase (RT) enzyme that converts the viral single-stranded RNA into integration-competent double-stranded DNA.

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 ...

Reverse transcriptase

Biochemical Education, 1995
Abstract The reverse transcriptase (RT) of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) converts the single-stranded (+) viral RNA genome into double¬ stranded proviral DNA prior to its integration into the host genomic DNA. The HIV-1 RT has therefore been the target for anti-viral drug design (1).
