Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Reverse transcriptases (RTs) are enzymes that can generate a complementary strand of DNA (cDNA) from RNA. Coupled with PCR, RTs have been widely used to detect RNAs and to clone expressed genes. Classical retroviral RTs have been improved by protein engineering. These enzymes and newly characterized RTs are key elements in the development of next-generation sequencing techniques that are now being applied to the study of transcriptomics. In addition, engineered RTs fused to a CRISPR/Cas9 nickase have recently shown great potential as tools to manipulate eukaryotic genomes. In this review, we discuss the properties and uses of wild type and engineered RTs in biotechnological applications, from conventional RT-PCR to recently introduced prime editing.
