Reverse transcription is the process of synthesis of DNA from RNA template. This process is driven by RNA-dependent DNA polymerases, also known as reverse transcriptases. A reverse transcriptase synthesizes a complementary DNA (cDNA) strand from the given RNA template strand aiding to produce cDNA libraries. cDNA libraries contain DNA copies of mRNA from cells and tissues and are used to understand actively expressed genes and their functions at a specific point of time.
