The inhibition of HIV-1’s replicative machinery remains a cornerstone in the battle against AIDS. Central to this approach are inhibitors targeting reverse transcriptase (RT) and integrase. Reverse ...

New England Biolabs (NEB®) announced today that they have released a novel, thermostable reverse transcriptase, WarmStart® RTx Reverse Transcriptase, specifically designed for nucleic acid detection.

Viral reverse transcriptase (RT) plays a critical role in replication (e.g., retroviruses, that reverse transcribe RNA templates into complementary DNA) and genome mutations (e.g., ...

Reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR)--a method for assessing gene expression, detecting low copy number mRNA transcripts, and generating complementary DNAs (cDNAs) for cloning--converts an RNA template ...

Partnership delivers advanced reverse transcriptase technology to enhance sensitivity, robustness and reproducibility of molecular analysis in clinical, applied and pharmaceutical applications Promega ...

Jerold Chun, MD, PhD, is a professor in the Center for Neurologic Diseases at Sanford Burnham Prebys and the senior and corresponding author of the manuscript. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common ...

On the third day of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, Arbor Biotechnologies and Vertex Pharmaceuticals announced that they would be expanding into reverse transcription-based in vivo genetic ...

New research has determined the spatial structure of various processes of a novel gene-editing tool called 'prime editor.' Functional analysis based on these structures also revealed how a 'prime ...

Many cancers exhibit high levels of the reverse transcriptase enzyme. Single-agent lamivudine, a reverse transcriptase inhibitor, stopped disease progression in over 25% of patients with fourth-line ...

A study published in The Journal of Pathology reveals that many cancers that carry a poor prognosis express an altered form of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), an enzyme that regulates ...
