Deaminase-independent inhibition of parvoviruses by the APOBEC3A cytidine deaminase.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
The APOBEC3 proteins form a multigene family of cytidine deaminases with inhibitory activity against viruses and retrotransposons. In contrast to APOBEC3G (A3G), APOBEC3A (A3A) has no effect on lentiviruses but dramatically inhibits replication of the ...

A role for Tau protein in maintaining ribosomal DNA stability and cytidine deaminase-deficient cell survival

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) deficiency leads to genome instability. Here the authors find a synthetic lethal interaction between CDA and the microtubule-associated protein Tau deficiencies, and report that Tau depletion affects rRNA synthesis ...

Efficient deamination of 5-methylcytidine and 5-substituted cytidine residues in DNA by human APOBEC3A cytidine deaminase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Deamination of 5-methylcytidine (5MeC) in DNA results in a G:T mismatch unlike cytidine (C) deamination which gives rise to a G:U pair. Deamination of C was generally considered to arise spontaneously.

Human APOBEC1 cytidine deaminase edits HBV DNA [PDF]

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2009
Retroviruses, hepadnaviruses, and some other retroelements are vulnerable to editing by single stranded DNA cytidine deaminases. Of the eleven human genes encoding such enzymes, eight have demonstrable enzymatic activity.

APOBEC3A is a prominent cytidine deaminase in breast cancer.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
APOBEC cytidine deaminases are the second-most prominent source of mutagenesis in sequenced tumors. Previous studies have proposed that APOBEC3B (A3B) is the major source of mutagenesis in breast cancer (BRCA).

Cytidine deaminase can deaminate fused pyrimidine ribonucleosides. [PDF]

open access: yesOrg Biomol Chem, 2021
The tolerance of Cytidine Deaminase (CDA) to expanded heterocycles is explored via three fluorescent cytidine analogues, where the pyrimidine core is fused to three distinct five-membered heterocycles at the 5/6 positions.

Cytidine Deaminase Resolves Replicative Stress and Protects Pancreatic Cancer from DNA-Targeting Drugs. [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Res
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) functions in the pyrimidine salvage pathway for DNA and RNA syntheses and has been shown to protect cancer cells from deoxycytidine-based chemotherapies.

Activation induced cytidine deaminase: An old friend with new faces. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Immunol, 2022
Activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID) protein is a member of APOBEC family. AID converts cytidine to uracil, which is a key step for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR). AID also plays critical roles in B cell precursor

A Rapid Approach for Identifying Cell Lines Lacking Functional Cytidine Deaminase. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
CDD plays a pivotal role within the pyrimidine salvage pathway. In this study, a novel, rapid method for the identification of cell lines lacking functional cytidine deaminase was developed. This innovative method utilizes immunocytochemical detection of
