Background The cytidine deaminases APOBEC3G (A3G) and APOBEC3F (A3F) are innate cellular factors that inhibit replication of a number of viruses, including HIV-1. Since antiviral activity of APOBEC3 has been mainly confirmed by in vitro data, we examined

Co-option of an endogenous retrovirus envelope for host defense in hominid ancestors [PDF]
Endogenous retroviral sequences provide a molecular fossil record of ancient infections whose analysis might illuminate mechanisms of viral extinction.

APOBEC3 proteins and genomic stability [PDF]
The human APOBEC3 family of cytidine deaminases constitutes a cellular intrinsic defense mechanism that is effective against a range of viruses and retro-elements. While it is well established that these enzymes are powerful mutators of viral DNA, the possibility that their activity could threaten the integrity of the host genome has only recently ...

Background APOBEC3 cytosine deaminases have been demonstrated to restrict infectivity of a series of retroviruses, with different efficiencies depending on the retrovirus.

ABSTRACT Monkeypox is a reemerging zoonotic disease that has been spreading worldwide. Different approaches are being conducted to find effective treatments for this disease. To accelerate therapeutic discovery, we propose telomere‐binding protein (TBP) as a potential drug target because of its important role during virus maturation.

Viral infection, APOBEC3 dysregulation, and cancer
Viral infection plays a significant role in the development and progression of many cancers. Certain viruses, such as Human Papillomavirus (HPV), Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), and Hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV, HCV), are well-known for their oncogenic potential.

Nucleoside and polynucleotide cytidine deaminases (CDAs), such as CDA and APOBEC3, share a similar mechanism of cytosine to uracil conversion. In 1984, phosphapyrimidine riboside was characterised as the most potent inhibitor of human CDA, but the quick ...

Human APOBEC3 proteins are cytidine deaminases that contribute broadly to innate immunity through the control of exogenous retrovirus replication and endogenous retroelement retrotransposition.

ABSTRACT Background Urothelial bladder carcinoma is extremely rare in children and its association with BK virus infection remains unclear. Methods We describe the case of an 11‐year‐old girl who developed a urothelial carcinoma of the bladder four years after receiving her first kidney transplant.
