Скачать или смотреть Virology Lectures 2026 #9: Reverse transcription and integration

Retroviruses, hepatitis B viruses, and caulimoviruses include the enzyme reverse transcriptase, an enzyme that copies RNA into DNA, in their reproduction cycles. In this lecture we dissect the mechanism of reverse transcription and integration, and their the reproduction cycles of retroviruses and hepatitis B virus. We also introduce retroelements, mobile DNA sequences that move about the genome through the action of reverse transcriptase, which make up an amazing 42% of the human genome.

– Who Am I? –

I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor, and I believe that education should be free.

I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this YouTube channel I share videos of my lectures, MicrobeTV podcasts, and more.

New videos are uploaded several times each week.
