Rescue of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis phenotype in a mouse model by intravenous AAV9‐ADAR2 delivery to motor neurons

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2013
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common adult‐onset motor neuron disease, and the lack of effective therapy results in inevitable death within a few years of onset.

Comprehensive interrogation of the ADAR2 deaminase domain for engineering enhanced RNA editing activity and specificity

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) can be repurposed to enable programmable RNA editing, however their exogenous delivery leads to transcriptome-wide off-targeting, and additionally, enzymatic activity on certain RNA motifs, especially those ...

Modulation of ADAR mRNA expression in patients with congenital heart defects.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Adenosine (A) to inosine (I) RNA editing is a hydrolytic deamination reaction catalyzed by the adenosine deaminase (ADAR) enzyme acting on double-stranded RNA.

Identification of novel deregulated RNA metabolism-related genes in non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Several alterations in RNA metabolism have been found in lung cancer cells; this suggests that RNA metabolism-related molecules are involved in the development of this pathology. In this study, we

Abnormal expression of an ADAR2 alternative splicing variant in gliomas downregulates adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: RNA editing is catalyzed by adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs). ADAR2 is the main enzyme responsible for recoding editing in humans. Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing at the Q/R site is reported to be decreased in gliomas; however,

Adar RNA editing-dependent and -independent effects are required for brain and innate immune functions in Drosophila

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Human RNA editing enzymes ADAR1 and ADAR2 are required for innate immune functions and neurological functions, respectively. Here, the authors show that Drosophila Adar has both innate immune and brain functions, despite being the homolog of mammalian ...

Heterogeneous RNA editing and influence of ADAR2 on mesothelioma chemoresistance and the tumor microenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2022
We previously observed increased levels of adenosine‐deaminase‐acting‐on‐dsRNA (Adar)‐dependent RNA editing during mesothelioma development in mice exposed to asbestos.

ADAR1 restricts LINE-1 retrotransposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) are involved in RNA editing that converts adenosines to inosines in double-stranded RNAs. ADAR1 was demonstrated to be functional on different viruses exerting either antiviral or proviral effects.

What do editors do? Understanding the physiological functions of A-to-I RNA editing by adenosine deaminase acting on RNAs [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2020
Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing is a post-transcriptional modification of RNA which changes its sequence, coding potential and secondary structure.
