16
Q

where is the zn binding domain located?

A

under loop 1 and connected between loop 3 and loop 5

17
Q

a2 prefers to bind to ssDNA where? what function does this serve?

A

in GC rich motifs (typically seen in promoter regions)

regulation of gene transcription (usually through repression from promoter binding)

18
Q

single domain A3’s and double domain A3’s

A

single - a3a, a3c, a3h
double - a3b, a3d, a3f, a3g

19
Q

Double domain A3s have difficulties with what?

A

entering the nucleus

20
Q

what apobec can passively enter the nucleus but does not contain a NLS?

A

A3h

21
Q

what apobec remains in the cytoplasm and why?

A

A3G
It contains a novel CRS (cytoplasmic retention signal)

22
