Background: The Apoliprotein B mRNA-editing, enzyme-catalytic, polypeptide-like (APOBEC) 3 is a multi-isoform member of the cytidine deaminase family of enzymes that act on monomeric nucleoside and nucleotide substrates (1). Similar to TRIM5alpha which targets incoming retroviral capsids, APOBEC3 plays a major role in cellular defense against retroviral infection (2,3) as at least two isoforms, APOBEC3G and to a lesser extent APOBEC3F, can be incorporated HIV-1 virions and induce hypermutation in the newly synthesized viral DNA and thus destabilize the viral genome (4,5). This innate mechanism of retroviral resistance is counteracted by the HIV-1 Vif protein by inducing the ubiquitization and degradation of APOBEC3G, a single amino acid substitution (D128K) blocks APOBEC3G depletion without affecting its inhibitory activity (6).Synonyms: APOBEC-3G, APOBEC-related cytidine deaminase, ARCD, ARP9, CEM15, DNA dC->dU-editing enzyme APOBEC-3G, MDS019
