General annotation (Comments)
| Function | DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) which acts as an inhibitor of retrovirus replication and retrotransposon mobility. After the penetration of retroviral nucleocapsids into target cells of infection and the initiation of reverse transcription, it can induce the conversion of cytosine to uracil in the minus-sense single-strand viral DNA, leading to G-to-A hypermutations in the subsequent plus-strand viral DNA. The resultant detrimental levels of mutations in the proviral genome, along with a deamination-independent mechanism that works prior to the proviral integration, together exert efficient antiretroviral effects in infected target cells. Selectively targets single-stranded DNA and does not deaminate double-stranded DNA or single- or double-stranded RNA By similarity. |
| Catalytic activity | Deoxycytidine + H2O = deoxyuridine + NH3. |
| Cofactor | Zinc By similarity. |
| Enzyme regulation | Assembly into ribonucleoprotein complexes of high-molecular-mass (HMM) inhibits its enzymatic activity By similarity. |
| Subunit structure | Homodimer. Homooligomer. Can bind RNA to form ribonucleoprotein complexes of high-molecular-mass (HMM) or low-molecular-mass (LMM). HMM is inactive and heterogeneous in protein composition because of binding nonselectively to cellular RNAs, which in turn are associated with variety of cellular proteins. The LMM form which is enzymatically active has few or no RNAs associated. Its ability to form homooligomer is distinct from its ability to assemble into HMM. Interacts with APOBEC3B, APOBEC3F, MOV10, EIF2C2/AGO2, EIF4E, EIF4ENIF1, DCP2 and DDX6 in an RNA-dependent manner. Interacts with EIF2C1/AGO1, EIF2C3/AGO3 and PKA/PRKACA By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | Cytoplasm By similarity. Nucleus By similarity. Cytoplasm › P-body By similarity. Note: Mainly cytoplasmic, small amount are found in the nucleus By similarity. |
| Domain | The CMP/dCMP deaminase zinc-binding 1 domain mediates RNA binding, RNA-dependent oligomerization and virion incorporation whereas the CMP/dCMP deaminase zinc-binding 2 domain confers deoxycytidine deaminase activity and substrate sequence specificity By similarity. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family. Contains 2 CMP/dCMP deaminase zinc-binding domains. |
