General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
3.5.4.B9 physiological function the enzyme is an important component of the cellular innate immune response to retroviral infection. The enzyme APOBEC3G can extinguish HIV-1 infectivity by its incorporation into virus particles and subsequent cytosine deaminase activity that attacks the nascent viral cDNA during reverse transcription, causing lethal mutagenesis. The enzyme can also induce sublethal mutagenesis, which maintains virus infectivity and contribute to HIV-1 variation Homo sapiens
