Zinc Finger RNA-Binding Protein Zn72D Regulates ADAR-Mediated RNA Editing in Neurons
Summary: Adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing, catalyzed by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes, alters RNA sequences from those encoded by DNA. These editing events are dynamically regulated, but few trans regulators of ADARs are known in vivo.

Fmrp Interacts with Adar and Regulates RNA Editing, Synaptic Density and Locomotor Activity in Zebrafish. [PDF]
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most frequent inherited form of mental retardation. The cause for this X-linked disorder is the silencing of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (fmr1) gene and the absence of the fragile X mental retardation protein (Fmrp).

Interferon (IFN)-β is the first-line disease management choice in multiple sclerosis (MS) with profound effects; however, in up to 50% of patients, clinical response does not occur.

ADARs have effects beyond RNA editing [PDF]
hairpin-mediated silencing and partially restores the red eye pigment. Inactive ADAR1p150 restored the pigmentation to 40% of ADAR1p150 levels suggesting that binding alone can influence processing of long duplexes into siRNAs. Cleavage by DICER is thought to be affected as this antagonism occurs in the cytoplasm and DICER can partially suppress the ...

DNA editing in DNA/RNA hybrids by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA. [PDF]
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) carry out adenosine (A) to inosine (I) editing reactions with a known requirement for duplex RNA. Here, we show that ADARs also react with DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes.

Measuring Tie Strength in Implicit Social Networks [PDF]
Given a set of people and a set of events they attend, we address the problem of measuring connectedness or tie strength between each pair of persons given that attendance at mutual events gives an implicit social network between people.

Principles Governing A-to-I RNA Editing in the Breast Cancer Transcriptome
Little is known about how RNA editing operates in cancer. Transcriptome analysis of 68 normal and cancerous breast tissues revealed that the editing enzyme ADAR acts uniformly, on the same loci, across tissues.

Promoting RNA editing by ADAR attraction [PDF]
Concentration is important and not only while driving; a new study indicates how an adjacent genomic element helps to increase the efficiency of a specific adenosine to inosine RNA editing reaction, by providing a means to increase the local concentration of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR.

Probing RNA recognition by human ADAR2 using a high-throughput mutagenesis method. [PDF]
Adenosine deamination is one of the most prevalent post-transcriptional modifications in mRNA. In humans, ADAR1 and ADAR2 catalyze this modification and their malfunction correlates with disease. Recently our laboratory reported crystal structures of the

ADAR Editing Wobbles the MicroRNA World [PDF]
Recent work reveals that adenosine-to-inosine editing occurs in a number of cellular microRNAs (miRNAs). Such editing is shown to diminish the expression of one miRNA and alter the target specificity of another. This changes our current views significantly by not only increasing the repertoire of miRNAs and their potential targets, but also providing ...
