HIV is a retrovirus. HIV is an enveloped retrovirus. Each virus particle contains two copies of an RNA genome. The virus also has a number of enzymes: reverse transcriptase, integrase and viral protease. These molecules play an important role in making new copies of HIV and can be the targets of antiretroviral drugs.
Retrovirus. Retroviruses are enveloped viruses that belong to the viral family Retroviridae. A retrovirus is an RNA virus that is duplicated in a host cell using the reverse transcriptase enzyme to produce DNA from its RNA genome. On infection, the single-stranded RNA viral genome and the enzyme enters the host cell.he viral genome is released into the host cell, from which a copy of DNA is made by the help of the enzyme reverse transcriptase. The cDNA is integrated into the host chromosome. The virus remains unexpressed until the host's immune system is stimulated.
