RNA Editing and Drug Discovery for Cancer Therapy
RNA editing is vital to provide the RNA and protein complexity to regulate the gene expression. Correct RNA editing maintains the cell function and organism development. Imbalance of the RNA editing machinery may lead to diseases and cancers.

The Integrative Studies on the Functional A-to-I RNA Editing Events in Human Cancers
Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing, constituting nearly 90% of all RNA editing events in humans, has been reported to contribute to the tumorigenesis in diverse cancers.

An RNA editing fingerprint of cancer stem cell reprogramming [PDF]
BackgroundDeregulation of RNA editing by adenosine deaminases acting on dsRNA (ADARs) has been implicated in the progression of diverse human cancers including hematopoietic malignancies such as chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

Genome-wide identification and functional analysis of Apobec-1-mediated C-to-U RNA editing in mouse small intestine and liver [PDF]
BackgroundRNA editing encompasses a post-transcriptional process in which the genomically templated sequence is enzymatically altered and introduces a modified base into the edited transcript. Mammalian C-to-U RNA editing represents a distinct subtype of

Genome-wide identification of A-to-I RNA editing events provides the functional implications in PDAC
IntroductionRNA editing, a wide-acknowledged post-transcriptional mechanism, has been reported to be involved in the occurrence and development of cancer, especially the abnormal alteration of adenosine to inosine.

Combining Insertion and Deletion in RNA-editing Preserves Regularity [PDF]
Inspired by RNA-editing as occurs in transcriptional processes in the living cell, we introduce an abstract notion of string adjustment, called guided rewriting. This formalism allows simultaneously inserting and deleting elements.

High Level of Conservation of Mitochondrial RNA Editing Sites Among Four Populus Species
RNA editing occurs in the endosymbiont organelles of higher plants as C-to-U conversions of defined nucleotides. The availability of large quantities of RNA sequencing data makes it possible to identify RNA editing sites and to quantify their editing ...
