The role of RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 in human disease
Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) catalyzes the posttranscriptional conversion of adenosine to inosine in double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA), which can lead to the creation of missense mutations in coding sequences.

RNA Editing and Retrotransposons in Neurology [PDF]
Compared to sites in protein-coding sequences many more targets undergoing adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing were discovered in non-coding regions of human cerebral transcripts, particularly in genetic transposable elements called retrotransposons. We review here the interaction mechanisms of RNA editing and retrotransposons and their impact on

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

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 ...

RNA editing by ADAR1 prevents MDA5 sensing of endogenous dsRNA as nonself
RNA editing helps identify cellular RNAs Adenosine bases in messenger RNA (mRNAs) can be enzymatically modified and changed into inosine bases. This RNA “editing” is mediated by adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes. Liddicoat et al. show that

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 ...

Host A-to-I RNA editing signatures in intracellular bacterial and single-strand RNA viral infections
BackgroundMicrobial infection is accompanied by remodeling of the host transcriptome. Involvement of A-to-I RNA editing has been reported during viral infection but remains to be elucidated during intracellular bacterial infections.ResultsHerein we ...

Activity-regulated RNA editing in select neuronal subfields in hippocampus [PDF]
RNA editing by adensosine deaminases is a widespread mechanism to alter genetic information in metazoa. In addition to modifications in non-coding regions, editing contributes to diversification of protein function, in analogy to alternative splicing ...

Adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing in neurological development and disease
Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing is one of the most prevalent post-transcriptional RNA modifications in metazoan. This reaction is catalysed by enzymes called adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs).
