This track provides information on RNA nucleotides that are edited after transcription and their corresponding genomic coordinates. Only post-transcriptional editing that results in small changes to the identity of a nucleic acid are included in this track; it does not include other RNA processing such as splicing or methylation. The track contains information on A-to-I (adenosine-to-inosine) and C-to-U (cytidine-to-uridine) editing that occur due to deamination by ADAR and APOBEC enzymes, respectively. Most of the data in this track are on A-to-I editing, which is known to be highly abundant in humans.
Track items are colored depending on their occurrence within RNA transcripts:
The data were obtained from several research papers on RNA editing and were mapped to the reference genome. More information can be obtained from DARNED database.
