Chapter 16.4, Problem 3MC
Summary Introduction
To describe:
The way in which HIV replicates in host cell.
Concept introduction:
HIV (Human Immuno Virus) is another virus that can reside in the human cells without expressing its effect. The HIV virus is a class VI virus that belongs to retroviruses family and contains single stranded RNA. The HIV enzyme reverse transcriptase transcribes the viral genetic material RNA to DNA that can actively incorporate itself into the genetic material (DNA) of the host.
