Conservation of A-to-I RNA editing in bowhead whale and pig
RNA editing is a post-transcriptional process in which nucleotide changes are introduced into an RNA sequence, many of which can contribute to proteomic sequence variation.

The motor neurons of patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) express abundant Q/R site–unedited GluR2 mRNA, whereas those of patients with other motor neuron diseases including familial ALS associated with mutated SOD1 (ALS1) and those

ADARs (adenosine deaminases acting on RNA) are known for their adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing activity, and most recently, for their role in preventing aberrant dsRNA-response by activation of dsRNA sensors (i.e., RIG-I-like receptor homologs). However,

Suppression of RNA editing by miR-17 inhibits the stemness of melanoma stem cells
More and more evidence suggests that microRNA (miRNA) and RNA editing play key roles in the development and progression of tumor. However, the influence of miRNA-mediated RNA editing on tumor stem cells remains unclear.

ADAR2-mediated editing of miR-214 and miR-122 precursor and antisense RNA transcripts in liver cancers. [PDF]
A growing list of microRNAs (miRNAs) show aberrant expression patterns in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the regulatory mechanisms largely remain unclear.

Requirement of the RNA-editing Enzyme ADAR2 for Normal Physiology in Mice
ADAR2, an RNA editing enzyme that converts specific adenosines to inosines in certain pre−mRNAs, often leading to amino acid substitutions in the encoded proteins, is mainly expressed in brain. Of all ADAR2−mediated edits, a single one in the pre−mRNA of

Developing PspCas13b-based enhanced RESCUE system, eRESCUE, with efficient RNA base editing
RNA base editing is potential for cellular function research and genetic diseases treating. There are two main RNA base editors, REPAIR and RESCUE, for in vitro use.

LB cells were transfected with si-ADAR2 or with a control si molecule (siControl). Cells were either treated with DFO 16h post-transfection or untreated. RNA and proteins of all cells were extracted 40h post-transfection (24h post-DFO treatment).

Profound downregulation of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR2 in ALS spinal motor neurons
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common adult-onset fatal motor neuron disease. In spinal motor neurons of patients with sporadic ALS, normal RNA editing of GluA2, a subunit of the L-α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ...

ADAR-mediated RNA editing of DNA:RNA hybrids is required for DNA double strand break repair
Different roles of specific RNA-related factors in DNA repair have now been reported. Here the authors reveal a role for RNA-editing by ADAR in DNA end resection following double strand break formation and a change in pattern of ADAR2-mediated A-to-I ...
