In the minus-strand transfer step of HIV-1 reverse transcription, the nucleocapsid protein (NC) promotes annealing of the 3' 'R' (repeat) region of the RNA genome to its complementary sequence located in the newly synthesized minus-strand strong-stop DNA. The R region contains the highly stable t...
