(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID57379
Official gene symbolAICDA
Full nameactivation-induced cytidine deaminase
Aliases,AID,ARP2,CDA2,HIGM2,
Gene summaryThis 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]
