m6A demethylation of cytidine deaminase APOBEC3B mRNA orchestrates arsenic-induced mutagenesis
6 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
The cytidine deaminase APOBEC3B (A3B) is an endogenous inducer of somatic mutations and causes chromosomal instability by converting cytosine to uracil in single-stranded DNA. Therefore, identification of factors and mechanisms that mediate A3B expression will be helpful for developing therapeutic approaches to decrease DNA mutagenesis. Arsenic (As) is one well-known mutagen and carcinogen, but the mechanisms by...
