Abstract excerpt
Several APOBEC3 proteins (A3F and A3G), that are cytidine deaminases restrict human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication in the absence of the viral infectivity factor (Vif) protein. However, Vif leads to their degradation and counteracts their effects. Another member, A3A, restricts some retrotransposons and another virus but not HIV.
