Background
This gene encodes a member of the apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide 3 family of proteins. The encoded protein is a cytidine deaminase that has antiretroviral activity by generating lethal hypermutations in viral genomes. Polymorphisms and alternative splicing in this gene influence its antiretroviral activity and are associated with increased resistence to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection in certain populations. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009],
Function
cofactor:Zinc.,function:Poorly expressed deaminase that is ineffective at inhibiting retroviral replication. Has DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) activity but is not able to mediate G-to-A hypermutation in newly synthesized retroviral DNA.,miscellaneous:APOBEC3H from old world monkeys has retained its antiviral activity, while it is lost in other primates.,miscellaneous:It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22.,similarity:Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family.,tissue specificity:Present at low level in 293T cells. Unstable protein, suggesting that it may be degraded by the proteasome (at protein level). Weakly expressed. Expressed in testis, ovary, fetal liver and skin.,
