APOBEC3B
-
Official Full Name
apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3B
-
Overview
This gene is a member of the cytidine deaminase gene family. It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22. Members of the cluster encode proteins that are structurally and functionally related to the C to U RNA-editing cytidine deaminase APOBEC1. It is thought that the proteins may be RNA editing enzymes and have roles in growth or cell cycle control. A commonly-found deletion polymorphism of approximately 29.5 kb removes the 3 UTR of the adjacent APOBEC3A gene and the coding region of this gene and creates a hybrid of the two genes. -

Q&As (18)
Ask a questionAberrant expression or dysregulation of APOBEC3B has been implicated in various types of cancer, including breast, bladder, and lung cancer. Its overexpression can contribute to genetic mutations and genomic instability in cancer cells.
In general, APOBEC3B mutations are not associated with genetic disorders. However, mutations in other members of the APOBEC3 family, such as APOBEC3A, have been linked to rare genetic disorders like hypermutation syndrome.
Research on APOBEC3B involves various techniques such as gene expression analysis, protein assays, biochemical assays, next-generation sequencing, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, immunohistochemistry, and animal models. These techniques help researchers investigate its expression, activity, protein-protein interactions, and functional consequences.
Currently, there are no registered clinical trials specifically targeting APOBEC3B in cancer. However, considering the growing interest in understanding its role in cancer development, it is possible that clinical trials will be initiated in the future.
APOBEC3B primarily functions in antiviral defense by inducing hypermutation in viral genomes. However, recent studies suggest it may also play a role in DNA repair processes and contribute to genome instability in cancer.
While APOBEC3B's primary role is to restrict retroviruses, studies have shown its activity against other viruses as well. These include hepatitis B virus (HBV), human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and others. However, the extent of its antiviral activity against non-retroviral viruses is still being explored.
There is evidence suggesting that APOBEC3B expression is associated with increased drug resistance in certain cancers, such as breast and lung cancer. Its mutagenic activity can contribute to the acquisition of drug-resistant mutations, posing a challenge for effective cancer treatment.
APOBEC3B expression levels have been evaluated as potential diagnostic or prognostic markers in various cancers. However, more research is needed to establish its clinical utility.
APOBEC3B expression can be regulated by various factors, including different signaling pathways and epigenetic modifications. The precise mechanisms regulating its expression are still under investigation.
While there are currently no approved therapies specifically targeting APOBEC3B in cancer, understanding its role in tumor development and progression has opened up new avenues for potential therapeutic interventions. For example, targeting DNA repair pathways affected by APOBEC3B activity or combining APOBEC3B inhibition with other treatments may hold promise for future clinical applications.
Yes, APOBEC3B is expressed at low levels in various normal tissues, such as breast, lung, and reproductive organs. However, its expression is significantly upregulated in cancer tissues, contributing to the malignant phenotype.
While APOBEC3B's primary functions are related to antiviral defense and cancer, emerging research suggests its involvement in other biological processes. For example, it may play a role in DNA damage response, immune regulation, and autoimmune diseases. However, further investigation is required to fully understand its broader functions.
The regulation of APOBEC3B expression in cancer cells is complex and not fully understood. However, various transcription factors, DNA methylation patterns, histone modifications, and signaling pathways have been implicated in its dysregulation in cancer cells.
Yes, genetic variants and polymorphisms of the APOBEC3B gene have been identified. Some of these variants have been associated with altered protein expression and activity.
Targeting APOBEC3B directly for cancer treatment has proven challenging due to its essential role in antiviral defense. However, researchers are exploring strategies to inhibit its activity selectively in cancer cells to reduce mutagenesis without compromising the immune system.
Currently, there are no specific inhibitors or activators that target APOBEC3B directly. However, certain molecules or compounds that modulate other proteins in the same pathway or interactome as APOBEC3B may indirectly affect its activity.
Yes, certain environmental factors like exposure to certain chemicals or chronic viral infections can upregulate APOBEC3B expression. This increased activity may contribute to higher mutation rates and cancer development.
APOBEC3B has been found to interact with several cellular proteins and pathways involved in DNA repair and replication. These interactions may influence its function and contribute to genome maintenance and stability.
