Ancient origin of RNA editing in kinetoplastid protozoa.

L Simpson1, D A Maslov.   

Abstract

A rooted phylogenetic tree of the kinetoplastid protozoa has been constructed that, together with a comparative analysis of editing of several genes, leads to the surprising conclusion that extensive or pan-editing with multiple overlapping guide RNAs is more ancient than 5'-editing. The mechanism of editing is still uncertain, but multiple ribonucleoprotein complexes have been identified that contain components of the enzymatic machinery.
