Definition Retrovirus逆转录酶病毒一a virus who stores its genetic information as RNA rather than as DNA.When the virus enters a targeted host cell,it releases its RNA and an enzyme (reverse transcriptase),and then makes DNA using the viral RNA as a pattern.The viral DNA is then incorporated into the host cell DNA.This reverses the pattern of human cells,which copy RNA from the pattern of human DNA.Other RNA viruses,such as polio or measles 庥疹,do not make DNA copies but simply copy their own RNA
