FunFam 13331: C->U-editing enzyme APOBEC-1

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
MRNA(cytosine(6666)) deaminase. [EC: 3.5.4.36]
Cytosine(6666) in apolipoprotein B mRNA + H(2)O = uracil(6666) in apolipoprotein B mRNA + NH(3).
  • The apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme complex catalyzes the editing of apolipoprotein B mRNA at cytidine(6666) to uridine, thereby transforming the codon for glutamine-2153 to a termination codon.
  • Editing results in translation of a truncated apolipoprotein B isoform (apoB-48) with distinct functions in lipid transport.
  • The catalytic component (APOBEC-1) contains zinc at the active site.
