Priming

... by elongating from the 3' end of a nucleic acid strand which is bound in an antiparallel orientation with the template strand. I have not heard of priming the template backwards (parallel). I have never heard of a natural system making parallel complementary transcripts from opposite strands of ...

However, the classical vaccination approaches that have been successful in the control of various viral diseases by priming the adaptive immunity to recognize the viral envelope proteins have failed in the case of HIV-1. Some have stated that an HIV vaccine may not ...
