An eazyme produced by HIV that allows the integration of HIV DNA into the host cell’s DNA is : A)Ligase B)Integrase C)Helicase D)DNA gyrase
Option B) HIV’s enzyme for inserting the DNA version of its genome into the host cell DNA is called its “integrase”. HIV-1 integrase catalyzes the “cut-and-paste” action of clipping the host DNA and joining the proviral genome to the clipped ends. It is also produced by viruses containing double-stranded DNAs for the same purpose.
