products description :
AICDA, also known as AID, is involved in somatic hypermutation, gene conversion, and class-switch recombination in B-lymphocytes. This protein is required for several crucial steps of B-cell terminal differentiation necessary for efficient antibody responses. It may also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by participating in DNA demethylation. Recombinant human AICDA protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a RNA-editing deaminase that is a member of the cytidine deaminase family. The protein is involved in somatic hypermutation, gene conversion, and class-switch recombination of immunoglobulin genes. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive hyper-IgM immunodeficiency syndrome type 2 (HIGM2). [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]
uniprot summary :
AID: Single-stranded DNA-specific cytidine deaminase. Involved in somatic hypermutation, gene conversion, and class- switch recombination in B-lymphocytes. Required for several crucial steps of B-cell terminal differentiation necessary for efficient antibody responses. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by participating in DNA demethylation. Strongly expressed in lymph nodes and tonsils. Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family. Protein type: EC 3.5.4.38; Hydrolase. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12p13. Cellular Component: cytoplasm; exosome (RNase complex); nucleus. Molecular Function: protein binding; zinc ion binding; ubiquitin protein ligase binding; cytidine deaminase activity. Biological Process: somatic diversification of immunoglobulins; B cell differentiation; somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin genes; isotype switching; cytidine deamination; mRNA processing. Disease: Immunodeficiency With Hyper-igm, Type 2
