Abstract excerpt
The expression of angiosperm chloroplast genes is modified by C-to-U RNA editing. The mechanism for recognition of the approximately 30 C targets of editing is not understood. There is no single consensus sequence surrounding editing sites, though sites can be grouped into small 'clusters' of two to five sites exhibiting some sequence similarity. While complementary RNA that guides nucleotides for alteration has...
