Summary

Summary

Description
English: When a non-retroviral virus infects a cell, the viral RNA is released and double stranded RNA (dsRNA) intermediates are produced. Viral dsRNA is then used as a template to produce viral DNA (vDNA) by the reverse transcriptase activity of retrotransposon elements. vDNA integrates into the host cell genome, probably by transposition activity of retrotransposons, becoming a NIRVS. NIRVS is then transcribed either into siRNAs or piRNAs to inhibit the viral RNA after association with the RISC complex or into mRNA, and translated into a dominant negative form protein, that can alter the viral replication by several ways. For example, by inhibiting the viral replication complex or viral assembly.
