- Contains comprehensive reviews by leaders in each subfield of RNA editing in one volume.
- Facilitates comparisons of mechanistically diverse types of RNA editing.
- Illustrates types of reactions that can occur on RNA thus facilitating parallels with other types of RNA processing.
RNA Editing devotes a chapter to each of the major types of this form of RNA processing. Each chapter is written by a leader in the field and offers fundamental principles, as well as up to date information on recent advances. Numerous examples of RNAs known to be edited are provided throughout the volume, but most importantly, the book highlights the amazing mechanistic diversity found among the various types of RNA editing. RNAs are cleaved, ligated, and deaminated on their way to maturation, and in some cases, their sequence is even altered in the brief moment when RNA polymerase stalls. The
chemical reactions that allow RNA editing, and the RNA and proteins that direct the process are all described and will be of interest to students and established researchers in the field as well as those scientists from other disciplines who come across examples of RNA editing. Readership: Postgraduates and researchers working in areas of molecular biology and biochemistry, particularly in RNA metabolism and processing.
