RNA-DNA hybrid containing the polypurine tract + H2O extension of the polypurine tract primer by at least 2 nucleotides is sufficient for recognition and correct cleavage by RNase H at the RNA-DNA junction to remove the primer. Primer removal occurs by cleavage one nucleotide away from the RNA-DNA junction. The same polypurine tract specificity determinants responsible for generation of the polypurine tract primer also direct polypurine tract primer removal. Once the primer has been extended and removed from the nascent plus-strand DNA, reinitiation at the resulting plus-strand primer terminus does not occur Moloney murine leukemia virus ?
