However, retroviruses function differently – their RNA is reverse-transcribed into DNA, which is integrated into the host cell’s genome (when it becomes a provirus), and then undergoes the usual transcription and translational processes to express the genes carried by the virus.

It also addresses retroviruses, specifically HIV-1 and HIV-2, which have RNA genomes and are linked to AIDS.
