Apolipoprotein B mRNA–Editing Enzyme, Catalytic Polypeptide–Like 3G: A Possible Role in the Resistance to HIV of HIV‐Exposed Seronegative Individuals
2 Mar 2007
Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3G (APOBEC3G), a human cytidine deaminase, is a potent inhibitor of HIV replication. To explore a possible role of this protein in modulating in vivo susceptibility to HIV infection, we analyzed APOBEC3G expression in HIV-exposed seronegative individuals, HIV-seropositive patients, and healthy control subjects. The results showed that the expression...
