APOBEC3 Proteins Inhibit LINE‐1 Retrotransposition in the Absence of ORF1p Binding
1 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
Members of the apolipoprotein B mRNA editing complex polypeptide 1-like (APOBEC) family of enzymes exhibit inhibitory activity against a variety of exogenous and endogenous retroviruses including retrotransposons, such as long interspersed element 1 (LINE-1). Indeed, human APOBEC3A, APOBEC3B, and APOBEC3F inhibit retrotransposition of human LINE-1, mouse IAP and MusD retrotransposons. In our study, we examined...
