Reverse transcriptase (RT) යනු RNA template එකකින් reverse transcription ක්‍රමවේදය හරහා complementary DNA (cDNA) නිපදවීමේදී භාවිතාවන එන්සයිමයක් වේ.

ඉතිහාසය

University of Wisconsin–Madison හි Howard Temin විසින් reverse transcriptases සොයාගත් අතර [2] 1970 දී MIT හි David Baltimore සිදුකරන ලද ස්වාදීන පර්යේෂණයක දී RNA tumour වෛරස දෙකක් වන murine leukemia virus සහ Rous sarcoma virus වලින් reverse transcriptase වෙන් කර ගන්නා ලදී.[3] එම සොයාගැනීමට 1975 දී ඔවුන් දෙදෙනා හට Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (Renato Dulbecco සමඟ) හීමිවිය.
