Double-Stranded RNA Adenosine Deaminases Enhance Expression of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Proteins
28 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
ADARs (adenosine deaminases that act on double-stranded RNA) are RNA editing enzymes that catalyze a change from adenosine to inosine, which is then recognized as guanosine by translational machinery. We demonstrate here that overexpression of ADARs but not of an ADAR mutant lacking editing activity could upregulate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) structural protein expression and viral production....
