AICDA

Gene
AICDA
Protein
Single-stranded DNA cytosine deaminase
Organism
Bos taurus
Length
199 amino acids
Function
Single-stranded DNA-specific cytidine deaminase. Involved in somatic hypermutation (SHM), gene conversion, and class-switch recombination (CSR) in B-lymphocytes by deaminating C to U during transcription of Ig-variable (V) and Ig-switch (S) region DNA. Required for several crucial steps of B-cell terminal differentiation necessary for efficient antibody responses. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression by participating in DNA demethylation.
Similarity
Belongs to the cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family.
