This works similar to antiretroviral drugs by blocking the enzyme reverse transcriptase.

它的功效和抗逆转病毒药物相似，用来阻挡逆转录酶。

Also attached to the CRISPR protein is an enzyme called reverse transcriptase.

与 CRISPR 蛋白相连的还有一种叫做逆转录酶的酶。

If the viral RNA is present, the primers attach to the RNA strand and then reverse transcriptase synthesizes a cDNA strand.

如果存在相关病毒RNA，引物便会与RNA单链结合，之后逆转录酶将会合成一条互补DNA链。

One of the commonest genes we have is for a protein called reverse transcriptase, which has no known beneficial function in human beings at all.

我们体内有一种最为常见的基因——一种被称为逆转录酶的蛋白质，据知它在人体内根本不起任何好作用。

The " retro" part of retrovirus isn't referring to its style, but refers to it needing to use an enzyme called reverse transcriptase to transcribe a complementary double-stranded piece of " proviral" DNA.

逆转录病毒“retrovirus”中的“retro”并不是指复古风格，而是指它需要逆转录酶合成前病毒DNA的互补双链。

To perform RT-PCR, some of the extracted sample from the nasopharyngeal swab is added to a solution containing an enzyme called reverse transcriptase, nucleotides and primers that are complimentary to a specific SARS-CoV-2 target sequence.

RT-PCR的操作步骤是：首先将鼻咽拭子的部分样本加入到含有逆转录酶、核苷酸和引物的溶液中，其中的引物将与SARS-CoV-2病毒的目标序列互补。
