Replication protein A (RPA) hampers the processive action of APOBEC3G cytosine deaminase on single-stranded DNA. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Editing deaminases have a pivotal role in cellular physiology. A notable member of this superfamily, APOBEC3G (A3G), restricts retroviruses, and Activation Induced Deaminase (AID) generates antibody diversity by localized deamination of cytosines in DNA.

A split and inducible adenine base editor for precise in vivo base editing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
DNA base editors use deaminases fused to a programmable DNA-binding protein for targeted nucleotide conversion. However, the most widely used TadA deaminases lack post-translational control in living cells.

Disruption of Transcriptional Coactivator Sub1 Leads to Genome-Wide Re-distribution of Clustered Mutations Induced by APOBEC in Active Yeast Genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Mutations in genomes of species are frequently distributed non-randomly, resulting in mutation clusters, including recently discovered kataegis in tumors. DNA editing deaminases play the prominent role in the etiology of these mutations.

Replacing the SpCas9 HNH domain by deaminases generates compact base editors with an alternative targeting scope

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021
Base editors are RNA-guided deaminases that enable site-specific nucleotide transitions. The targeting scope of these Cas-deaminase fusion proteins critically depends on the availability of a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) at the target locus and is ...

Stem-loop structure preference for site-specific RNA editing by APOBEC3A and APOBEC3G [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
APOBEC3A and APOBEC3G cytidine deaminases inhibit viruses and endogenous retrotransposons. We recently demonstrated the novel cellular C-to-U RNA editing function of APOBEC3A and APOBEC3G.

Highly Efficient CRISPR-Mediated Base Editing in Sinorhizobium meliloti

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Rhizobia are widespread gram-negative soil bacteria and indispensable symbiotic partners of leguminous plants that facilitate the most highly efficient biological nitrogen fixation in nature.
