KROK 1 2007 – Question 51 · KROK (Medicine) · Biological Chemistry
RNA that contains AIDS virus penetrated into a leukocyte and by means of reverse transcriptase forced a cell to synthetize a viral DNA. This process is based upon:
- A. Reverse translation
- B. Convariant replication
- C. Operon depression
- D. Reverse transcription
- E. Operon repression
Hint
Think about the direction of information transfer when an enzyme copies a viral RNA template into a DNA strand, opposite to the usual flow of the central dogma.
