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

Structure of the DNA deaminase domain of the HIV-1 restriction factor APOBEC3G

TL;DR: The structure of the APOBEC3G catalytic domain will help to understand functions of other family members and interactions that occur with pathogenic proteins such as HIV-1 Vif and Escherichia coli-based activity assays.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Enzymatic Activity of CEM15/Apobec-3G Is Essential for the Regulation of the Infectivity of HIV-1 Virion but Not a Sole Determinant of Its Antiviral Activity

TL;DR: The mutagenesis analysis on two cytidine deaminase motifs in CEM15/Apobec-3G indicates that the enzymatic activity of this protein is essential but not a sole determinant of the antiviral activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of the APOBEC3G catalytic domain reveals potential oligomerization interfaces

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the catalytically active C-terminal domain was determined and this structure corroborates features previously observed in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies, a bulge in the second beta strand and a lengthening of the second alpha helix.
