[[Reverse transcriptase]] (RT) or RNA-dependent DNA polymerase transcribes single-stranded RNA into double-stranded DNA. HIV-1 RT is from the human immunodeficiency virus and is a heterodimer of P66 and P51. The images at the left and at the right correspond to one representative RT structure, ''i.e.'' crystal structure of HIV-1 Reverse transcriptase ([[1hmv]]). P15 is its RNAse H domain. NNRTI are the non-nucleoside inhibitors of HIV-1 RT. M-MLV is RT from the leukemia virus. | |||
