Evolutionary Analyses of RNA Editing and Amino Acid Recoding in Cephalopods
2019-07-25
Abstract excerpt
RNA editing is a post-transcriptional modification process that alters nucleotides of mRNA and consequently the amino acids of the translated protein without changing the original DNA sequence. In human and other mammals, amino acid recoding from RNA editing is rare, and most edits are non-adaptive and provide no fitness advantage ( 1 ). However, recently it was discovered that in soft-bodied cephalopods, which a...
