Summary
APOBEC3H (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3H, HGNC:24100) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q13.1, encoding DNA dC->dU-editing enzyme APOBEC-3H (Q6NTF7). DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) which acts as an inhibitor of retrovirus replication and retrotransposon mobility via deaminase-dependent and -independent mechanisms.
This 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.

Function. DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) which acts as an inhibitor of retrovirus replication and retrotransposon mobility via deaminase-dependent and -independent mechanisms. The A3H-var/haplotype 2 exhibits antiviral activity against vif-deficient HIV-1. 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. Exhibits antiviral activity also against T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and may inhibit the mobility of LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with AGO1, AGO2 and AGO3.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. P-body.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in lymphoid organs. Also detected in non-lymphoid tissues including lung, testis, ovary, fetal liver and skin.
Post-translational modifications. (Microbial infection) Following infection by some HIV-1 strains, such as isolate BRU/LAI, can be ubiquitinated by a cullin-5-RING E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex (ECS complex) hijacked by the HIV-1 Vif protein, leading to its degradation. Ubiquitination by the ECS complex is however less efficent compared to APOBEC3G or APOBEC3G.
Activity regulation. APOBEC3H activity is regulated by RNA. While RNA-binding inhibits the DNA deaminase activity, double-stranded RNA is required for HIV-1 restriction by promoting APOBEC3H homodimerization and packaging into retroviral nucleocapsids. (Microbial infection) Antiviral activity is inhibited to some extent by the HIV-1 virion infectivity factor (VIF), that prevents its incorporation into progeny virions by both inhibiting its translation and/or by inducing its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation by the 26S proteasome.
Polymorphism. There are at least 4 different haplotypes in the human population. The allele A3H-var/haplotype 2 encodes a more stable protein which is able to block HIV-1 replication. The displayed allele (haplotype 1) is unstable and inefficient to block HIV-1 replication.
Miscellaneous. APOBEC3H from old world monkeys has retained its antiviral activity, while it is lost in other primates. It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22.
Similarity. Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family.
