General description

APOBEC3G (apolipoprotein B messenger-RNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3G) belongs to the APOBEC family of cytidine deaminases. It is expressed predominantly in cytoplasmic region. It is localized in pyramidal neurons within the gray matter of cerebral and cerebellar cortices. It has a core α-β-α fold structure for catalytic activity. The five-stranded β-sheet is surrounded on both sides by six α-helices arranged over a hydrophobic platform.

Biochem/physiol Actions

APOBEC3G (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3G) is associated with diverse biological functions such as mRNA editing, inhibiting the mobilization of retroviruses and retrotransposons, including the inhibition of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) replication. It can restrict HIV-1 infectivity during reverse transcription, by inserting in viral particles and deaminating the viral cDNA cytidines to uridines. The deaminated uridines mutate the DNA strand to generate stop codons for the inactivation of the virus. However, with the help of viral Vif protein HIV-1 can counteracts APOBEC3G by protosomal degradation.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The human APOBEC3G (apolipoprotein B messenger-RNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3G) protein is a single-strand DNA deaminase that inhibits the replication of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1), other retroviruses and retrotransposons. APOBEC3G anti-viral activity is circumvented by most retroelements, such as through
