Improving site-directed RNA editing by screening RNA editing

... Recoding genetic information through RNA editing is a process catalyzed by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADAR). ADARs are an evolutionarily conserved family of enzymes that convert adenosines to inosines within mRNA transcripts. Because inosine is read as guanosine during translation, RNA ed ...

History of RNA biology

Numerous key discoveries in biology have emerged from studies of RNA (ribonucleic acid), including seminal work in the fields of biochemistry, genetics, microbiology, molecular biology, molecular evolution and structural biology. As of 2010, 30 scientists have been awarded Nobel Prizes for experimental work that includes studies of RNA. Specific discoveries of high biological significance are discussed in this article.For related information, see the articles on History of Molecular Biology and History of Genetics. For background information, see the articles on RNA and nucleic acid.
