ncbi 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. The protein encoded by this gene lacks the zinc binding activity of other family members. The protein plays a role in immunity, by restricting transmission of foreign DNA such as viruses. One mechanism of foreign DNA restriction is deamination of foreign double-stranded DNA cytidines to uridines, which leads to DNA degradation. However, other mechanisms are also thought to be involved, as anti-viral effect is not dependent on deaminase activity. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
uniprot summary :
Function: DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) with restriction activity against viruses, foreign DNA and mobility of retrotransposons. Exhibits antiviral activity against adeno-associated virus (AAV) and human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and may inhibit the mobility of LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons. Selectively targets single-stranded DNA and can deaminate both methylcytosine and cytosine in foreign DNA. Can induce somatic hypermutation in the nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression through the process of active DNA demethylation. Ref.1 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.11 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.15 Ref.16 Ref.17 Ref.19 Ref.22 Ref.24. Catalytic activity: Cytidine + H2O = uridine + NH3. Ref.9 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.17. Cofactor: Zinc . By similarity. Subunit structure: Interacts with AGO2. Interacts with TRIB3 (via N-terminus). Ref.23 Ref.25. Subcellular location: Nucleus. Cytoplasm Ref.9 Ref.11 Ref.17 Ref.18 Ref.23. Tissue specificity: Expressed in peripheral leukocytes with higher expression in CD14-positive phagocytic cells. Highly expressed in keratinocytes and in periphery blood monocytes. Also detected in non-lymphoid tissues including lung and adipose tissues. Found at high levels in colorectal adenocarcinoma, Burkitt's lymphoma and chronic myelogenous leukemia. Ref.6 Ref.9 Ref.13 Ref.14. Induction: Up-regulated by interferon and CpG single-stranded DNA (at protein level). Ref.12 Ref.13. Miscellaneous: It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family.Contains 1 CMP/dCMP deaminase zinc-binding domain.
