R72A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows reduced activity compared to wild-type. The R72A mutation might impair the nucleotide-induced conformational change but does not affect the RNase H activity directly, kinetic parameters governing TTP binding and incorporation by the HIVRT mutant, overview. The mutation causes impaired TTP induced conformational change on RNase H activity | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
W71A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant is probably less rigidly locked on the substrate DNA/RNA hybrid, parameters governing TTP binding and incorporation by the HIVRT mutant, overview. The mutation causes impaired TTP induced conformational change on RNase H activity | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
W71D | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant is probably less rigidly locked on the substrate DNA/RNA hybrid, parameters governing TTP binding and incorporation by the HIVRT mutant, overview. The mutation causes impaired TTP induced conformational change on RNase H activity | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |

additional information | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 | a DNA/RNA hybrid can simultaneously engage both active sites. Of the tested interconverting reverse transcriptase-DNA/RNA species, 43% are active for both sites simultaneously, 27% show only polymerase activity, and the remaining 30% are nonproductive. A string of at least 4-6 nucleotides downstream of the cleaving site is required for efficient RNA cleavage. During processive nucleotide incorporation, sequential rounds of RNA cleavage occur each time after about 6 nucleotides are incorporated, during processive primer extension, diphosphate release is rate-limiting. Although polymerization is efficient and processive, RNase H is inefficient and periodic. This combination allows the two catalytic centers of HIVRT to work simultaneously at similar speeds without being tightly coupled | ? | - |

physiological function | HIV reverse transcriptase plays a central role in viral replication and requires coordination of both polymerase and RNaseH activities. HIV-1 reverse transcriptase polymerase and RNase H (ribonuclease H) active sites work simultaneously and independently | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
