Studies on the Restriction of Murine Leukemia Viruses by Mouse APOBEC3
APOBEC3 proteins function to restrict the replication of retroviruses. One mechanism of this restriction is deamination of cytidines to uridines in (-) strand DNA, resulting in hypermutation of guanosines to adenosines in viral (+) strands. However, Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMLV) is partially resistant to restriction by mouse APOBEC3 (mA3) and virtually completely resistant to mA3-induce...
متن کاملHost restriction of murine gammaherpesvirus 68 replication by human APOBEC3 cytidine deaminases but not murine APOBEC3.
Humans encode seven APOBEC3 (A3A-A3H) cytidine deaminase proteins that differ in their expression profiles, preferred nucleotide recognition sequence and capacity for restriction of RNA and DNA viruses. We identified APOBEC3 hotspots in numerous herpesvirus genomes. To determine the impact of host APOBEC3 on herpesvirus biology in vivo, we examined whether murine APOBEC3 (mA3) restricts murine ...
متن کاملInteractions of murine APOBEC3 and human APOBEC3G with murine leukemia viruses.
APOBEC3 proteins are cytidine deaminases which help defend cells against retroviral infections. One antiviral mechanism involves deaminating dC residues in minus-strand DNA during reverse transcription, resulting in G-to-A mutations in the coding strand. We investigated the effects of mouse APOBEC3 (mA3) and human APOBEC3G (hA3G) upon Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV). We find that mA3 inacti...
متن کاملAbrogation of Fv-1b restriction with murine leukemia viruses inactivated by heat or by gamma irradiation.
Fv-1b restriction in BALB/3T3 cells is temporarily abrogated following infection with N-tropic murine leukemia virus. The mechanism of this phenomenon was investigated by comparing the inactivation rates for viral infectivity and for the ability of the same virus to abrogate Fv-1 restriction. Inactivation of the abrogating ability of N-tropic murine leukemia virus following graduated doses of g...
متن کاملRole of APOBEC3 in Genetic Diversity among Endogenous Murine Leukemia Viruses
The ability of human and murine APOBECs (specifically, APOBEC3) to inhibit infecting retroviruses and retrotransposition of some mobile elements is becoming established. Less clear is the effect that they have had on the establishment of the endogenous proviruses resident in the human and mouse genomes. We used the mouse genome sequence to study diversity and genetic traits of nonecotropic muri...
