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.

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.

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

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 ...

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 ...

RNA editing of the GLI1 transcription factor modulates the output of Hedgehog signaling [PDF]
The Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway has important roles in tumorigenesis and in embryonal patterning. The Gliomaassociated oncogene 1 (GLI1) is a key molecule in HH signaling, acting as a transcriptional effector and, moreover, is considered to be a ...

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.
