A-to-I RNA Editing: Current Knowledge Sources and Computational Approaches with Special Emphasis on Non-Coding RNA Molecules [PDF]
RNA editing is a dynamic mechanism for gene regulation attained through the alteration of the sequence of primary RNA transcripts. A-to-I (Adenosine-to-Inosine) RNA editing, which is catalyzed by members of the Adenosine Deaminase Acting on RNA (ADAR ...

A Role for A-to-I RNA Editing in Temperature Adaptation [PDF]
A-to-I RNA editing can recode mRNAs, giving organisms the option to express diverse, functionally distinct protein isoforms. Here, we propose that RNA editing is inherently geared for temperature adaptation because it tends to recode to smaller, less stabilizing amino acids. Studies on how editing affects protein function support this idea.

Actions of Agonists, Fipronil and Ivermectin on the Predominant In Vivo Splice and Edit Variant (RDLbd, I/V) of the Drosophila GABA Receptor Expressed in Xenopus laevis Oocytes [PDF]
Ionotropic GABA receptors are the targets for several classes of insecticides. One of the most widely-studied insect GABA receptors is RDL (resistance to dieldrin), originally isolated from Drosophila melanogaster.

Transcriptome-wide identification of A > I RNA editing sites by inosine specific cleavage [PDF]
Adenosine to inosine (A > I) RNA editing, which is catalyzed by the ADAR family of proteins, is one of the fundamental mechanisms by which transcriptomic diversity is generated.

Systematically Characterizing A-to-I RNA Editing Neoantigens in Cancer [PDF]
A-to-I RNA editing can contribute to the transcriptomic and proteomic diversity of many diseases including cancer. It has been reported that peptides generated from RNA editing could be naturally presented by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules and elicit CD8+ T cell activation.

Solution structure of the N-terminal dsRBD of Drosophila ADAR and interaction studies with RNA [PDF]
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADAR) catalyze adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) editing in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) substrates. Inosine is read as guanosine by the translation machinery; therefore A-to-I editing events in coding sequences may ...

A-to-I RNA Editing: Recent News and Residual Mysteries*
Adenosine to inosine modification in pre-mRNA, with inosine acting as guanosine during translation, was the most recent type of RNA editing to be discovered (1).

Evolutionarily significant A-to-I RNA editing events originated through G-to-A mutations in primates
BackgroundRecent studies have revealed thousands of A-to-I RNA editing events in primates, but the origination and general functions of these events are not well addressed.ResultsHere, we perform a comparative editome study in human and rhesus macaque ...

RNA editing regulates insect gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor function and insecticide sensitivity [PDF]
A-to-I pre-mRNA editing by adenosine deaminase enzymes has been reported to enhance protein diversity in the nervous system. In Drosophila, the resistance to dieldrin (RDL) gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor subunit displays an editing site (R122 ...

Altered A-to-I RNA Editing in Human Embryogenesis
Post-transcriptional events play an important role in human development. The question arises as to whether Adenosine to Inosine RNA editing, catalyzed by the ADAR (Adenosine Deaminase acting on RNA) enzymes, differs in human embryogenesis and in adulthood.
