Function | Essential component of the apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme complex which is responsible for the postranscriptional editing of a CAA codon for Gln to a UAA codon for stop in APOB mRNA. Binds to APOB mRNA and is probably responsible for docking the catalytic subunit, APOBEC1, to the mRNA to allow it to deaminate its target cytosine. The complex also protects the edited APOB mRNA from nonsense- mediated decay. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Endoplasmic reticulum Cytoplasm. Note=Predominantly nuclear where it localizes to heterochromatin. Also cytoplasmic where it is found at the outer surface of the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity). Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. May be transported into the nucleus by the nuclear import protein TNPO2/TRN2 or by APOBEC1. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed with highest levels in brain, liver, pancreas, colon and spleen. |
Volume | 50 µl |
