APOBEC3A (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3A) belongs to the AID/APOBEC family of enzymes. It is located on human chromosome 22q13.1.
Anti-APOBEC3A antibody detects endogenous levels of total APOBEC3A protein.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human APOBEC3A.
Immunogen Range: 27-76
Application
Anti-APOBEC3A antibody has been used in western blotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
APOBEC3A (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3A) deaminates methylated cytosine bases in DNA. It is considered as a viral DNA mutator and performs broad antiviral activity.

Type III interferons (IFNs) (λ1-3) activate similar signaling cascades as type I IFNs (α and β) via different receptors. Since IFN-α and lymphotoxin-β activate cytosine deamination and subsequent purging of nuclear hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA, we investigated whether IFN-β
