Infection of Bronchial Epithelial Cells by the Human Adenoviruses A12, B3, and C2 Differently Regulates the Innate Antiviral Effector APOBEC3B
13 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
The APOBEC3 family of cytosine deaminases has important roles in antiviral innate immunity and cancer. Notably, APOBEC3A and APOBEC3B are actively upregulated by several DNA tumor viruses and contribute to transformation by introducing mutations in the cellular genome. Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are a large family of DNA viruses that cause generally asymptomatic infections in immunocompetent adults. HAdVs encode...
