El VIH pertenece a la familia de los retrovirus, lo cual significa que es capaz de invertir la dirección de la información que normalmente fluye del ADN [ácido desoxirribonucleico] al ARN [ácido ribonucleico], pero que en este caso lo hace en sentido inverso gracias a la transcriptasa inversa, introduciendo de esta manera su código genético y por medio de la integrasa lo "integra" al código de la célula CD4 [linfocito cooperador inductivo] infectada, lo que permite que ésta en lugar de multiplicarse, [produzca] nuevos virus llamados "viriones". 4, record 1, Spanish, - virus%20de%20inmunodeficiencia%20humana
