APOBEC3C Tandem Domain Proteins Create Super Restriction Factors against HIV-1

ABSTRACT Humans encode proteins, called restriction factors, that inhibit replication of viruses such as HIV-1. The members of one family of antiviral proteins, apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (APOBEC3; shortened here to A3), act by deaminating cytidines to uridines...
