Coordinated RNA- and protein-templated synthesis of double-stranded DNA by a dual reverse transcriptase immune system.
Defense-associated reverse transcriptase (DRT) systems mediate antiviral immunity through distinct modes of cDNA synthesis: class 1 DRTs catalyze untemplated synthesis, whereas class 2 DRTs polymerize non-coding RNA-templated products.
