  • Sevilya, Z.; Loya, S.; Hughes, S.H.; Hizi, A.
    The ribonuclease H activity of the reverse transcriptases of human immunodeficiency viruses type 1 and type 2 is affected by the thumb subdomain of the small protein subunits (2001), J. Mol. Biol., 311, 957-971.

additional information construction of chimeric HIV-1/HIV-2 reverse transcriptases, in which protein segments and/or subunits are exchanged. The RNase H specific activity of the chimeric enzymes is either high like HIV-1 reverse transcriptase or low like HIV-2 reverse transcriptase. The origin of the thumb subdomain in the small subunit of the chimeric reverse transcriptases, residues 244-322 determines the level of the RNase H activity Human immunodeficiency virus 1
