Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) convert adenosine to inosine in double-
stranded RNA. This A-to-I editing occurs not only in protein-coding regions of mRNAs, but …

Post-transcriptional modifications have been recently expanded with the addition of RNA
editing, which is predominantly mediated by adenosine and cytidine deaminases acting on …

A 6,474-nucleotide human cDNA clone designated K88, which encodes double-stranded
RNA (dsRNA)-specific adenosine deaminase, was isolated in a screen for interferon (IFN) …

To demonstrate the cellular and subcellular localization of mouse vasa homologue protein
during germ cell development, specific antibody was raised against the full-length MVH …

Chemical RNA modifications, collectively referred to as the “epitranscriptome,” are essential
players in fine-tuning gene expression. Our ability to analyze RNA modifications has …

RNA editing is a cellular process that precisely alters nucleotide sequences, thus regulating
gene expression and generating protein diversity. Over 60% of human transcripts undergo …

One of the most promising applications of microarrays is the study of changes in gene
expression associated with the growth and development of mammalian tissues. The testis …

During spermatogenesis, diploid stem cells differentiate, undergo meiosis, and transform
into haploid spermatozoa. As this precisely timed series of events proceeds, chromosomal …

The dsRNA binding proteins (DRBPs) comprise a growing family of eukaryotic, prokaryotic,
and viral‐encoded products that share a common evolutionarily conserved motif specifically …

This volume is a timely and comprehensive description of the many facets of DNA and RNA
modification-editing processes and to some extent repair mechanisms. Each chapter offers …
