<span>Endorphin. Endorphin are pepetide hormones secreted by the central nervous system and the pituitary gland. They inhibit the transmission of pain signals; they also produce a feeling of euphoria very similar to the ones produced by other opioids. Its 1 production is usually triggered by various human activities although they are produced in response to pain. Carrying out frequent exercise usually stimulates the release of beta-endorphin in the human brain known as runner's high. This is the probably the reason Mobombi could finish the race pain free.</span>

Which is incorrect descriptions of the genetic event initiated by the HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) upon the HIV infection?
Scrat [10]

Answer:

e. None of these

Explanation:

The immune deficiency viruses (HIV) are retroviruses that use a reverse transcriptase (RT) enzyme to produce a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from an RNA template. The reverse transcription allows retroviruses to replicate their genetic material, which is integrated into the host's genome as a double-stranded linear DNA molecule in a similar way to the mechanism of insertion used by endogenous retrotransposons. The synthesis of DNA is started by cellular tRNAs (tRNA3Lys) that are packaged into the virion. After reverse transcription, the HIV DNA enters the nucleus of CD4 immune cells (also known as CD4+ T cells), and then it integrates into the genome to coopt the host's cell machinery for its own replication.
