Mutational processes driving genome evolution and heterogeneity contribute to immune evasion and therapy resistance in viral infections and cancer. APOBEC3 (A3) enzymes promote such mutations by catalyzing the deamination of cytosines to uracils in single-stranded DNA. Chemical inhibition of A3 enzymes may yield an antimutation therapeutic strategy to improve the durability of current drug therapies that are prone to resistance mutations. A3 small-molecule drug discovery efforts to date have been restricted to a single high-throughput biochemical activity assay; however, the arsenal of discovery…
