Comprehensive high-resolution analysis of the role of an Arabidopsis gene family in RNA editing. [PDF]
In flowering plants, mitochondrial and chloroplast mRNAs are edited by C-to-U base modification. In plant organelles, RNA editing appears to be generally a correcting mechanism that restores the proper function of the encoded product.

Uncovering Cis-Regulatory Elements Important for A-to-I RNA Editing in Fusarium graminearum
Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing independent of adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes was discovered in fungi recently, and shown to be crucial for sexual reproduction. However, the underlying mechanism for editing is unknown.

Steric antisense inhibition of AMPA receptor Q/R editing reveals tight coupling to intronic editing sites and splicing [PDF]
Adenosine-to-Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a post-transcriptional mechanism, evolved to diversify the transcriptome in metazoa. In addition to wide-spread editing in non-coding regions protein recoding by RNA editing allows for fine tuning of protein ...

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 ...

DNA editing in DNA/RNA hybrids by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA. [PDF]
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) carry out adenosine (A) to inosine (I) editing reactions with a known requirement for duplex RNA. Here, we show that ADARs also react with DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes.

E-I balance and human diseases - from molecules to networking
Information transfer in the brain requires a homeostatic control of neuronal excitability. Therefore, a functional balance between excitatory and inhibitory systems is established during development.

Background Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is an essential post-transcriptional mechanism mediated by ADAR enzymes that have been recently associated with cancer. Results Here, we characterize the inosinome signature in normal brain and de novo

The landscape of coding RNA editing events in pediatric cancer
Background RNA editing leads to post-transcriptional variation in protein sequences and has important biological implications. We sought to elucidate the landscape of RNA editing events across pediatric cancers.

A model for codon position bias in RNA editing [PDF]
RNA editing can be crucial for the expression of genetic information via inserting, deleting, or substituting a few nucleotides at specific positions in an RNA sequence. Within coding regions in an RNA sequence, editing usually occurs with a certain bias

Information processing in the brain requires a delicate balance between excitation and inhibition. Glycine receptors (GlyR) are involved in inhibitory mechanisms mainly at a synaptic level, but potential novel roles for these receptors recently emerged ...
