Abstract
Provided is a novel reverse transcriptase with excellent thermal stability. A reverse transcriptase comprising the following amino acid sequence: (a) an amino acid sequence having at least 75% identity with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or 3; or (b) an amino acid sequence having deletion, substitution, insertion, or addition of one or several amino acids in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or 3.
