New insights into applications of base editor in hereditary disorders
Abstract Hereditary disorders are a group of diseases caused by genetic mutations or chromosomal variations. Although the incidence of each genetic disorder is relatively low, patients affected by the disease generally experience a range of severe symptoms, including blindness, disability, and even premature death. In addition, the available treatments

ADAR2: Towards a Structural and Kinetic Understanding of RNA Editing [PDF]
Adenosine Deaminases that Act on RNA (ADARs) are a small family of enzymes found in metazoans which edit pre-mRNAs by modifying the base adenosine to inosine. This editing results in translational mutations as inosine is interpreted as guanosine by translational machinery.

Endometrial cancer (EC) remains the most common malignancy of the genital tract among women in developed countries. Although much research has been performed at genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic level, there is still a significant gap in the ...

Oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1), a gene involved in X-linked intellectual disability, undergoes RNA editing and alternative splicing during human brain development. [PDF]
Oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1) encodes for a Rho-GTPase-activating protein, important for dendritic morphogenesis and synaptic function. Mutations in this gene have been identified in patients with X-linked intellectual disability associated with cerebellar ...

ABSTRACT Pyroptosis is a gasdermins‐dependent programmed cell death (PCD) characterised by progressive cellular swelling and plasma membrane rupture (PMR). This process releases intracellular contents that amplify inflammatory cascades and immune activation, involving the pathogenesis of various disorders such as tumours, heart and vascular diseases ...

ADAR2 mislocalization and widespread RNA editing aberrations in C9orf72-mediated ALS/FTD [PDF]
The hexanucleotide repeat expansion GGGGCC (G4C2)n in the C9orf72 gene is the most common genetic abnormality associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Recent findings suggest that dysfunction of nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking could affect the transport of RNA binding proteins in C9orf72 ALS/FTD.

Structure and Specific RNA Binding of ADAR2 Double-Stranded RNA Binding Motifs [PDF]
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) site-selectively modify adenosines to inosines within RNA transcripts, thereby recoding genomic information. How ADARs select specific adenosine moieties for deamination is poorly understood. Here, we report NMR structures of the two double-stranded RNA binding motifs (dsRBMs) of rat ADAR2 and an NMR ...

Nomogram Based on A‐To‐I RNA Editing for Predicting Overall Survival in Patients With Breast Cancer
ABSTRACT Adenosine‐to‐inosine RNA editing (ATIRE) is the most common type of RNA editing in higher eukaryotes. Many RNA editing events are associated with the occurrence and development of various tumours. Currently, several ATIRE sites have been used as predictors of cancer prognosis.

CRISPR/Cas9, while transformative, faces challenges in specificity, precision, delivery, accessibility, flexibility, and safety. This review addresses these limitations by highlighting strategies to reduce off‐target effects, exploring HDR‐based and alternative editing approaches, and evaluating advanced delivery mechanisms.
