Structural studies of RNA/DNA polypurine tracts.

Megan E Fitzgerald1, Alexander C Drohat.   

Abstract

During reverse transcription, an RNA polypurine tract (PPT) resists digestion by reverse transcriptase (RT) and primes plus-strand DNA synthesis. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Yi-Brunozzi et al. (2008) report structural studies of PPTs, illuminating how they are recognized by RT.
