As with all retroviruses, it reverse transcribes its RNA genome into cDNA before integration into the host DNA. History RSV was discovered in 1911 by Peyton Rous , working at Rockefeller University in New York City, by injecting cell free extract of chicken tumour into healthy Plymouth Rock chickens. The extract was found to induce oncogenesis . The tumour was found to be composed of connective tissue a sarcoma . Rous was awarded the Nobel Prize for the significance of his discovery in 1966.
