Abstract excerpt
The multifunctional enzyme human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) is a heterodimer composed of a 66-kDa (p66) subunit and a p66-derived 51-kDa (p51) subunit. p66/p51 HIV-1 RT contains 1 functional DNA polymerase and 1 ribonuclease H (RNase H) active site, which both reside in the p66 subunit at spatially distinct regions. In this study, we have investigated the relationship between...
