evolution | RNase H acts as gene modifier, driver of evolution and antiviral defense, overview | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
physiological function | reverse transcriptase (RT) acts in concert with the RNase H catalyzing retroviral replication, the retroviral ribonuclease H (RNase H) in retrovirus particles is essential component for the replication of viral RNA via an RNA/DNA hybrid intermediate to double-stranded DNA. RNase H is a part of the reverse transcriptase (RT) in retroviruses. But the enzyme has its proper role, impact on evolution and importance for the degradation of nucleic acids in various biological processes | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
