Mutations in human AID differentially affect its ability to deaminate cytidine and 5-methylcytidine in ssDNA substrates in vitro
Abstract Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is known for its established role in antibody production. AID induces the diversification of antibodies by deaminating deoxycytidine (C) within immunoglobulin genes. The capacity of AID to deaminate 5-methyldeoxycytidine (5 mC) and/or 5-hydroxymet...

Abstract Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is known for its established role in antibody production. AID induces the diversification of antibodies by deaminating deoxycytidine (C) within immunoglobulin genes. The capacity of AID to deaminate 5-methyldeoxycytidine (5 mC) and/or 5-hydroxymethyldeoxycytidine (5 hmC), and consequently AID involvement in active DNA demethylation, is not fully resolved. For instance, structural determinants of AID activity on different substrates remain to be identified. To better understand the latter issue, we tested how mutations in human AID (hAID) influence its ability to deaminate C, 5 mC, and 5 hmC in vitro. We showed that each of the selected mutations differentially affects hAID’s ability to deaminate C and 5 mC. At the same time, we did not observe hAID activity on 5 hmC.
