GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
APOBEC1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
APOBEC-1, BEDP, CDAR1, HEPR
Description
Apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the cytidine deaminase enzyme family. The encoded protein forms a multiple-protein editing holoenzyme with APOBEC1 complementation factor (ACF) and APOBEC1 stimulating protein (ASP). This holoenzyme is involved in the editing of C-to-U nucleotide bases in apolipoprotein B and neurofibromatosis-1 mRNAs. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]
