Abstract APOBEC3G is a cytidine deaminase with potent antiviral activity. The protein deaminates singlestranded DNA but is known to bind cellular and viral RNAs. There is increasing evidence that RNA binding of APOBEC3G is important for packaging into viral particles. However there is no consensus yet on the type of RNA involved. Commentary APOBEC3G is a cytidine deaminase that was recently identified as the prime substrate of the HIV-1 viral infectivity factor Vif 1 . In the absence of Vif APOBEC3G is packaged into viral cores and potently interferes with virus replication for a recent review see 2 . While it is undisputed that much of APOBEC3G s antiviral activity comes from its encapsidation into virions the mechanism of APOBEC3G packaging remains under discussion. Several studies conclude that APOBEC3G packaging is RNA independent and mediated by an APOBEC3G Gag interaction while others identified a requirement for viral or cellular RNA in the APOBEC3G packaging process Figure 1 . The study by Bach et al. 3 attempts to shed light onto the mechanism of APOBEC3G .
