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.
May inhibit the mobility of LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons.Dunham I., Nature 402:489-495(1999).
