Resistance of Cyclocytidine to Cytidine Deaminase
Deamination of cytidine derivatives especially of cyclocytidine by mouse kidney cytidine deaminase was examined. Cyclocytidine was not deaminated at either pH6.5 or pH7.3 by the enzyme. Furthermore, cyclocytidine did not inhibit the deamination of aracytidine and ([I]/[S])0.5 value for cyclocytidine was over 100.

In vitro Assay for Cytidine Deaminase Activity of APOBEC3 Protein
Cytidine deaminases are enzymes that catalyze the removal of an amino group from cytidine, forming uridine. APOBEC3 (ApolipoproteinB mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide like) proteins are cytidine deaminases that deaminate cytidines in ...

Multiple gene substitution by Target-AID base-editing technology in tomato
The use of Target activation-induced cytidine deaminase (Target-AID) base-editing technology with the CRISPR-Cas 9 system fused with activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) resulted in the substitution of a cytidine with a thymine.

Introduction of pathogenic mutations into the mouse Psen1 gene by Base Editor and Target-AID
CRISPR-guided cytidine deaminases, including BE3 (Base Editor 3) and Target-AID (activation-induced cytidine deaminase), can covert C:G base pairs to T:A at target site.

Structural features of antiviral DNA cytidine deaminases [PDF]
Abstract The APOBEC3 (A3) family of cytidine deaminases plays a vital role for innate defense against retroviruses. Lentiviruses such as HIV-1 evolved the Vif protein that triggers A3 protein degradation. There are seven A3 proteins, A3A-A3H, found in humans.

Human placenta cytidine deaminase: a zinc metalloprotein [PDF]
AbstractCytidine deaminase, a tetrameric enzyme purified from human placenta, was shown to contain a single atom of tightly bound zinc per subunit by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry analysis. The metal appears to be involved in catalysis, as suggested by the inhibition exerted by 1,10‐phenanthroline and dipicolinic acid.

APOBEC3s: DNA‐editing human cytidine deaminases [PDF]
AbstractNucleic acid editing enzymes are essential components of the human immune system that lethally mutate viral pathogens and somatically mutate immunoglobulins. Among these enzymes are cytidine deaminases of the apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide‐like (APOBEC) super family, each with unique target sequence specificity and ...

A putative antiviral role of plant cytidine deaminases [PDF]
Summary A mechanism of innate antiviral immunity operating against viruses infecting mammalian cells has been described during the last decade. Host cytidine deaminases (e.g., APOBEC3 proteins) edit viral genomes giving raise to hypermutated nonfunctional viruses; consequently, viral fitness is reduced through lethal ...
