Understanding the relation between RNase H and retrotransposition activity in the context of the Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome

Ribonucleases (RNases) H1 and H2 are endonucleases that hydrolyze the RNA strand of RNA-DNA hybrids forming at the chromosomal level as well as extra-chromosomal hybrids. Extra-chromosomal RNA-DNA hybrids can frequently occur in cells as intermediate structures in the process of reverse transcriptio...
