Evolution of RNA editing in trypanosome mitochondria.
Two different RNA editing systems have been described in the kinetoplast-mitochondrion of trypanosomatid protists. The first involves the precise insertion and deletion of U residues mostly within the coding regions of maxicircle-encoded mRNAs to produce open reading frames. This editing is mediated by short overlapping complementary guide RNAs encoded in both the maxicircle and the minicircle ...
متن کاملNovel modes of RNA editing in mitochondria
Gene structure and expression in diplonemid mitochondria are unparalleled. Genes are fragmented in pieces (modules) that are separately transcribed, followed by the joining of module transcripts to contiguous RNAs. Some instances of unique uridine insertion RNA editing at module boundaries were noted, but the extent and potential occurrence of other editing types remained unknown. Comparative a...
متن کاملUridine insertion/deletion RNA editing in trypanosome mitochondria--a review.
The uridine insertion/deletion RNA editing in trypanosome mitochondria is a unique posttranscriptional RNA maturation process that involves the addition or removal of uridine residues at precise sites usually within the coding regions of mitochondrial transcripts. This process creates initiation and termination codons, corrects frameshifts and even builds entire open-reading frames from nonsens...
متن کاملRNA editing intermediates of cox2 transcripts in maize mitochondria.
Eighteen cytidines are changed to uridines in the coding sequence of transcripts for cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 (cox2) in maize mitochondria. The temporal relationship of editing and splicing was examined in cox2 transcripts by sequence analysis of spliced and unspliced cDNAs. Cloned cDNAs of unspliced cox2 transcripts ranged from clones with no edited nucleotides to completely edited forms...
متن کاملRNA editing in metazoan mitochondria: staying fit without sex.
RNA editing subsumes a number of functionally different mechanisms which have in common that they change the nucleotide sequence of RNA transcripts such that they become different from what would conventionally be predicted from their gene sequences. RNA editing has now been found in the organelles of numerous organisms as well as in a few nuclear transcripts. Most recently, it was shown to aff...
