Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme encoded from the genetic material of retroviruses that accelerate or speed up the process of transcription of retrovirus ribonucleic acid into deoxyribonucleic acid. Reverse transcriptase enzyme is also called RNA-directed DNA polymerase. Some retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and avian myeloblastosis virus used this Reverse transcriptase enzyme.
