Riboviria is a realm o viruses that includes aw viruses wi a RNA genome that encodes anRNA-dependent RNA polymerase an aw viruses that encode an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase. RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), cried RNA replicase an aw, produces ribonucleic acid (RNA) frae RNA, an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (RdDp), cried reverse transcriptase an aw, produces deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) frae RNA. Thir enzymes are essential for replicating the viral genome an transcribing viral genes intae messenger RNA (mRNA) for translation o viral proteins.
