It is then integrated into host DNA and serves as a template for viral gene expression. Reverse transcription is catalyzed by the viral enzyme reverse transcriptase and is a complex process comprising a series of RNA-dependent DNA polymerization, DNA-dependent DNA polymerization, and RNase H reactions. Strand transfer reactions are required to complete the process. Reverse transcription is initiated when a molecule of host cell tRNA(lys3), which serves as a primer, is bound to the primer binding site of viral genomic RNA. The viral nucleocapsid protein is involved in each of the initiation of reverse transcription and in subsequent strand transfer or template-switching events. We review the interactions among reverse transcriptase, viral genomic RNA, the tRNA primer of reverse transcription, and viral nucleocapsid protein in the various steps of reverse transcription, including primer placement, initiation, and processive synthesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":80032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of human virology","volume":"3 1","pages":"16-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21623407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One essential retroviral enzyme is integrase (IN), which has been used as a target for developing agents that inhibit virus replication. In previous studies, we demonstrated that intracellular expression of single-chain variable antibody fragments (SFvs), which bind to IN, results in resistance to productive HIV-1 infection in T-lymphocytic cells. Because the highly conserved accessory HIV-1 Vpr protein can be packaged within virions in quantities similar to those of the major structural proteins, this primate lentiviral protein may be used as a fusion partner to deliver antiviral agents or other foreign proteins into progeny virions.

Ins96-0.9Neo was constructed in an unconventional manner in that the Neo ORF lacked a dedicated heterologous promoter. In this study, this wild-type plus AAV vector was to used to test AAV's packaging capacity and ability for chromosome 19 AAVS1 integration.
