Journal ArticleDOI

APOBEC3B is an enzymatic source of mutation in breast cancer

TL;DR: A model in which APOBEC3B-catalysed deamination provides a chronic source of DNA damage in breast cancers that could select TP53 inactivation is suggested to explain how some tumours evolve rapidly and manifest heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative profiling of the full APOBEC3 mRNA repertoire in lymphocytes and tissues: implications for HIV-1 restriction

TL;DR: A general model in which multiple APOBEC3 proteins function together to provide a constitutive barrier to foreign genetic elements, which can be fortified by transcriptional induction is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human and Rhesus APOBEC3D, APOBEC3F, APOBEC3G, and APOBEC3H Demonstrate a Conserved Capacity To Restrict Vif-Deficient HIV-1

TL;DR: The first comprehensive analysis of the complete, seven-member human and rhesus APOBEC3 families in HIV-1 restriction finds that one of these proteins, APOBec3G, is a potent HIV- 1 restriction factors.
Book ChapterDOI

The APOBEC3 family of retroelement restriction factors.

TL;DR: This work focuses on mechanisms of retroelement restriction by the APOBEC3 family of restriction enzymes, and considers the therapeutic benefits, as well as the possible pathological consequences, of arming cells with active DNA deaminases.
