The cDNA synthesis tutorial video is the follow up step after isolating RNA. We are able to synthesize cDNA from RNA through a process called reverse transcription (RT). RT is a process that does not occur in mammalian cells and it is not part of the Central Dogma in Biology. In order to perform RT we make use of a retrovirus enzyme called reverse transcriptase, which is able to synthesize cDNA from RNA.
