APOBEC2 - apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 2 Gene
Also Known as ARP1; ARCD1
Species: Homo sapiens
About APOBEC2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 259 orthologues and 9 paralogues. Biased expression in heart (RPKM 45.3), prostate (RPKM 9.9) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
Enables cytidine deaminase activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in DNA demethylation. Acts upstream of or within cytidine to uridine editing. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
