研究领域
Human long interspersed elements 1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only autonomous non-LTR retroelement in humans and has been associated with genome instability, inherited genetic diseases, and the development of cancer. Certain human APOBEC3 family proteins are known to have LINE-1 restriction activity. Our group focuses on exploring the mechanisms of APOBEC3 family proteins on LINE-1 restriction. Some of A3 proteins interact with LINE-1 ORF1p to target LINE-1 ribonucleoprotein particles in an RNA-dependent manner and further Inhibit the LINE-1 reverse transcriptase activity.
