The most recent developments in the field of A-to-I RNA modification, with a special emphasis on the roles of A-to-I in the genesis and progression of cancer. Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing ...
We improved our previously published pipeline to identify ncRNA editing sites from four human cancers: liver hepatocellular carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, kidney renal clear-cell carcinoma, and ...
In this protocol, I describe a method for measuring the frequency of adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing of primary, precursor and mature forms of specific microRNAs (miRNAs) derived from the same source ...
Inosine (I), a modified base found in the double-stranded regions of RNA in metazoans, has various roles in biological processes by modulating gene expression. Inosine is generated from adenosine (A) ...
Imagine a young patient with a debilitating, perhaps lethal, inherited disease showing up for her regular treatment. You inject a viral vector that delivers a personalized nanomachine to affected ...
Researchers have catalogued thousands of sites in the brain where RNA is modified throughout the human lifespan in a process known as adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing, offering important new ...
Researchers have reported finding major differences between postmortem and living prefrontal cortex brain tissues as they relate to one of the most abundant RNA modifications in the brain, known as ...
In a recent study in Nature Communications, researchers examined the adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) nucleoside editing of postmortem and live prefrontal cortical tissues. Researchers found that RNA ...
Mammalian cells have enzymes to convert adenosine to inosine by deamination and inosine to hypoxanthine by phosphorolysis, but they do not possess the enzymes necessary to form the free base, adenine, ...
The paper S.C. Kim et al., “Inosine, but none of the 8-oxo-purines, is a plausible component of a primordial version of RNA,” PNAS, 115:13318–23, 2018. Proponents of the RNA world theory argue that ...
