APOBEC3F

protein-coding

apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3F, the group of Apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunits

Gene summary

This gene is a member of the cytidine deaminase gene family. It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22. Members of the cluster encode proteins that are structurally and functionally related to the C to U RNA-editing cytidine deaminase APOBEC1. It is thought that the proteins may be RNA editing enzymes and have roles in growth or cell cycle control. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_145298.6. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) which acts as an inhibitor of retrovirus replication and retrotransposon mobility via deaminase-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Exhibits antiviral activity against vif-deficient HIV-1. After the penetration of retroviral nucleocapsids into target cells of infection and the initiation of reverse transcription, it can induce the conversion of cytosine to uracil in the minus-sense single-strand viral DNA, leading to G-to-A hypermutations in the subsequent plus-strand viral DNA. The resultant detrimental levels of mutations in the proviral genome, along with a deamination- independent mechanism that works prior to the proviral integration, together exert efficient antiretroviral effects in infected target cells. Selectively targets single-stranded DNA and does not deaminate double-stranded DNA or single- or double- stranded RNA. Exhibits antiviral activity also against hepatitis B virus (HBV), equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV), xenotropic MuLV-related virus (XMRV) and simian foamy virus (SFV) and may inhibit the mobility of LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression through the process of active DNA demethylation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15152192, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16378963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16527742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19458006, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20062055, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20219927, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20335265, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21496894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21835787, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22807680, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22915799, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23097438, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23152537}.;
