    2. RT makes double-stranded DNA molecules from ssRNA (single stranded RNA) molecule using it as a template.

    3. Retroviruses like HIV contain Reverse transcpritase (RT) enzyme, which uses the RNA molecule as template and make DNA from it and after that, virus make multiple copies of itself.

    4. Reverse transcriptase enzyme make DNA reverse transcrptionally from RNA the process known as RNA dependent DNA polymerase.

    5. It was first discovered in retroviruses.
