Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel

“A-to-I RNA Editing – Common, Hidden Mutations”   

The role of RNA modifications in gene regulation is becoming increasingly appreciated. RNA editing, specifically A-to-I editing by ADAR enzymes, is unique in altering not only the fate of the RNA molecule, but also the genetic information it contains (recoding).
