APOBEC3G-Augmented Stem Cell Therapy to Modulate HIV Replication: A Computational Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The interplay between the innate immune system restriction factor APOBEC3G and the HIV protein Vif is a key host-retrovirus interaction. APOBEC3G can counteract HIV infection in at least two ways: by inducing lethal mutations on the viral cDNA; and by ...

APOBEC3G expression and HIV-1 infection in Burkina Faso [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Public Health in Africa, 2018
APOBEC3G is a potent inhibitor of HIV-1 replication, and act by deaminating cytidines in uracil on the negative strand of the viral cDNA. In this case-control study, APOBEC3G expression in subjects’ naïve to HAART infected by HIV-1 and the effect of ...

Human APOBEC3G incorporation into murine leukemia virus particles [PDF]

open access: yesVirology, 2005
The human APOBEC3G protein exhibits broad antiretroviral activity against a variety of retroviruses. It is packaged into viral particles and executes its antiviral function in the target cell.

HIV-1 Vif and APOBEC3G: Multiple roads to one goal [PDF]

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2004
The viral infectivity factor, Vif, of human immunodeficiency virus type 1, HIV-1, has long been shown to promote viral replication in vivo and to serve a critical function for productive infection of non-permissive cells, like peripheral blood ...

APOBEC3G encapsidation into HIV-1 virions: which RNA is it? [PDF]

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2008
APOBEC3G is a cytidine deaminase with potent antiviral activity. The protein deaminates single-stranded DNA but is known to bind cellular and viral RNAs.

APOBEC3G: an intracellular centurion [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2008
The intrinsic antiretroviral factor APOBEC3G (A3G) is highly active against HIV-1 and other retroviruses. In different cell types, A3G is expressed in high-molecular-mass (HMM) RNA–protein complexes or low-molecular-mass (LMM) forms displaying different biological activities.

APOBEC3G expression correlates with unfavorable prognosis and immune infiltration in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Background: Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the most common pathological subtype of renal cell cancer. APOBEC3 activity has been identified in a variety of human cancers.

Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) Measurements of APOBEC3G Provide Structural Basis for Binding of Single-Stranded DNA and Processivity

open access: yesViruses, 2022
APOBEC3 enzymes are polynucleotide deaminases, converting cytosine to uracil on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and RNA as part of the innate immune response against viruses and retrotransposons. APOBEC3G is a two-domain protein that restricts HIV.

The Roles of APOBEC3G Complexes in the Incorporation of APOBEC3G into HIV-1

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The incorporation of human APOBEC3G (hA3G) into HIV is required for exerting its antiviral activity, therefore the mechanism underlying hA3G virion encapsidation has been investigated extensively. hA3G was shown to form low-molecular-mass (LMM) and high-molecular-mass (HMM) complexes.

APOBEC3G Targets Specific Virus Species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2004
ABSTRACT Human APOBEC3G (huAPOBEC3G), also known as CEM15, is a broad antiretroviral host factor that deaminates dC to dU in the minus strand DNA of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), other lentiviruses, and murine leukemia virus (MLV), thereby creating G-to-A hypermutation in the plus strand DNA to inhibit the infectivity of these ...
