The drug Isentress ("eye"-SEN-tress) treats infection by these pathogens by targeting the enzyme integrase, and X-SCID has been successfully corrected using one of these as a vector for gene therapy.

Peyton Rous discovered one of these pathogens responsible for malignant tumors in chickens, while Robert Gallo found one linked to leukemia and later shared credit for discovering the most widespread one in humans. About 8% of the human genome is derived from these entities, and the drugs Videx and AZT work by inhibiting their crucial enzyme, reverse transcriptase.  Exemplified by HIV, name these infectious agents that violate the central dogma of molecular biology by producing DNA from RNA.
