In vivo RNA editing of point mutations via RNA-guided adenosine deaminases. [PDF]
We present in vivo sequence-specific RNA base editing via adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes with associated ADAR guide RNAs (adRNAs). To achieve this, we systematically engineered adRNAs to harness ADARs, and comprehensively evaluated the

Proteins that contain a functional Z-DNA-binding domain localize to cytoplasmic stress granules [PDF]
Long double-stranded RNA may undergo hyper-editing by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs), where up to 50% of adenosine residues may be converted to inosine.

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Viral Infection and Immunology
LLPS organizes viral replication and antiviral immunity. Viruses hijack LLPS to form replication factories and evade immune sensors, while hosts assemble LLPS‐driven signaling hubs (e.g., MAVS, RIG‐I, and SGs) to amplify interferon responses. Targeting these condensate interfaces offers novel therapeutic strategies against infectious diseases ...

Protective paraspeckle hyper-assembly downstream of TDP-43 loss of function in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
Background Paraspeckles are subnuclear bodies assembled on a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NEAT1. Their enhanced formation in spinal neurons of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients has been reported but underlying mechanisms are unknown ...

Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

RNA editing by ADAR1 regulates innate and antiviral immune functions in primary macrophages
ADAR1-dependent A-to-I editing has recently been recognized as a key process for marking dsRNA as self, therefore, preventing innate immune activation and affecting the development and resolution of immune-mediated diseases and infections.

The influence of CpG and UpA dinucleotide frequencies on RNA virus replication and characterization of the innate cellular pathways underlying virus attenuation and enhanced replication [PDF]
Most RNA viruses infecting mammals and other vertebrates show profound suppression of CpG and UpA dinucleotide frequencies. To investigate this functionally, mutants of the picornavirus, echovirus 7 (E7), were constructed with altered CpG and UpA ...

When R‐Loops Go Awry: Genome Instability and Neurological Diseases
DNA normally exists as a double helix formed by two complementary strands. During gene transcription, however, one strand of DNA can bind to RNA, causing the other DNA strand to be displaced. This creates a structure called an R‐loop. R‐loops play important roles in normal cellular processes such as gene expression, DNA replication, and transcription ...

Background A-to-I RNA editing is an abundant post-transcriptional modification event in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Evidence suggests that adenosine deaminases acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) correlates to oxidative stress that is a crucial factor of HCC ...
