Abstract excerpt
RNA uridylylation reactions catalyzed by terminal uridylyl transferases (TUTases) play critical roles in the formation of the mitochondrial transcriptome in trypanosomes. Two mitochondrial RNA editing TUTases have been described: RNA editing TUTase 1 catalyzes guide RNA, ribosomal RNA, and mRNA 3'-uridylylation, and RNA editing TUTase 2 acts as a subunit of the RNA editing core complex (also referred to as the...
