RNA editing is an important mechanism for regulating genetic plasticity through the generation of alternative protein products from a single structural gene.
There are two types of substitutional RNA exist in mammals, namely A-to-I and C-to-U RNA editing.
The best-characterized example of C-to-U RNA editing involves the nuclear transcript encoding intestinal apolipoprotein B (apo B)).
Apo B RNA editing changes a CAA to a UAA stop codon, generating a truncated protein, apoB48.
The functional complex includes a minimal core composed of apobec-1 and ACF, that function as an adaptor protein by binding both the deaminase and the RNA substrate.
The RNA binding proteins also include CUGBP2 which along with Apobec-1 binds to the consensus binding sequence UUUN (A/U) U, present in c-myc, VEGF and Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2).
