Apobec-mediated retroviral hypermutation in vivo is dependent on mouse strain.

Replication of the complex retrovirus mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is antagonized by murine Apobec3 (mA3), a member of the Apobec family of cytidine deaminases. We have shown that MMTV-encoded Rem protein inhibits proviral mutagenesis by the Apobec enzyme, activation-induced cytidine deaminase (...
