Synopsis

This volume examines the various aspects of post-transcriptional RNA processing, including biosynthetic, genetic, and functional aspects of nucleotide modification and editing by nucleotide conversion as well as by nucleotide insertion/deletion. It covers techniques for identification and localization of modified nucleosides in RNA and chemical synthesis of RNA with site specific incorporation of natural and/or synthetic modified nucleosides. TABLE OF CONTENTS: Historical Perspective on RNA-Nuceloside Modifications RNA-Modifying and RNA-Editing Enzymes Detection and Structure Analysis of Modified Nucleosides in RNA by Mass Spectrometry Incorporation of Modified Nucleosides or Nucelotides in RNA (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Studies) Biophysical and Conformational Properties of Modified Nucleosides in RNA Effects of Pseudouridylation on tRNA Hydration and Dynamics Modulation Role of Modified Nucleotides in Anticodon-Anticodon Interaction Mechanisms of RNA-Modifying and -Editing Enzymes Structural Basis of Base Exchange by tRNA-Guanine Transglycosylases Biosynthesis and Functions of Modified Nucleosides in Eukaryotic mRNA Posttranscriptional Modifications in the U Small Nuclear RNAs The Pseudouridine Residues of rRNA Small Nucleolar RNAs Guide the Ribose Methylations of Eukaryotic rRNAs Functional Aspects of the Three Modified Nucleotides in Yeast Mitochondrial Large-Subunit rRNA Regulatory Aspects of rRNA Modifications and Pre-rRNA Processing Editing of tRNA RNA Editing by Base Conversion in Plant Organellar RNAs Apolipoprotein B mRNA Editing Adenosine-to-Inosine Conversion in mRNA Nucleoside Deaminases for Cytidine and Adenosine Mitochondrial mRNA Editing in Kinetoplastid Protozoa RNA Editing in Physarum Mitochondria Cotranscriptional Paramyxovirus mRNA Editing Intracellular Locations of RNA-Modifying Enzymes Genetics and Regulation of Base Modification in the tRNA and rRNA of Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes Links Between tRNA Modification and Metabolism and Modified Nucleosides as Tumor Markers Modified Nucleosides in Translation Importance of Modified Nucleotides in Replication of Retroviruses, Plant Pararetroviruses, and Retrotransposons Modified Nucleotides Always Were
