Bacteria defend themselves from viral infection using diverse immune systems, many of which sense and target foreign nucleic acids. Defense-associated reverse transcriptase (DRT) systems provide an ...

Viral reverse transcriptase (RT) plays a critical role in replication (e.g., retroviruses, that reverse transcribe RNA templates into complementary DNA) and genome mutations (e.g., ...

Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is highly aggressive, but extremely difficult to tell apart from other breast cancers.

Reverse transcriptase selection can make or break your molecular biology experiments. From thermostability to fidelity, each feature impacts cDNA yield and accuracy. Understanding your RNA quality, ...

Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia and affects more than a tenth of Americans aged 65 and older. The disease has proven difficult to develop new treatments for, and available ...

The re-transcribed DNA is then integrated into the genome of the host cell (Figure 2). This process requires the absence of the nuclear membrane and thus is restricted to the M-phase of proliferating ...

Just like us, bacteria are under constant threat of infection by viruses (called phages). We’ve found that many bacteria are armed with sophisticated viral defence systems powered by reverse ...
