Gene information for APOBEC3H (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID164668
Official gene symbolAPOBEC3H
Full nameapolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3H
Aliases,ARP10,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide 3 family of proteins. The encoded protein is a cytidine deaminase that has antiretroviral activity by generating lethal hypermutations in viral genomes. Polymorphisms and alternative splicing in this gene influence its antiretroviral activity and are associated with increased resistence to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection in certain populations. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
