Evolutionary driving forces of A‐to‐I editing in metazoans

Abstract: Adenosine‐to‐inosine (A‐to‐I) RNA editing is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that converts adenosines to inosines in metazoans' transcriptomes. However, the landscapes of editomes have considerably changed during evolution. Here, we review some of our current knowledge of A‐to‐I editing in the metazoan transcriptomes, focusing on the possible evolutionary driving forces underlying the editing events. First, we review the evolution of ADAR gene family in animals. Then, we summarize the recent advances in … Show more

“…The proteoforms arising from RNA editing were deduced from RNA sequences soon after discovery of this modification type (Sommer et al 1991). ADAR2 is an isoform encoded by a distinct gene in mammals, which is prone to editing exonic RNA sequences, thereby recoding proteins (Duan, Tang, and Lu 2022). Despite thousands of potential recoded sites being deduced from RNA sequencing, a few of them are characterized functionally.…”

“…A-to-I RNA editing events have been reported in tRNA from several domains. All deaminases have evolved from the bacterial ancestor enzyme TadA, and it is considered that ADAT1 contains the evolutionary clade of ADARs, while ADAT2 and ADAT3 belong to the evolutionary clade of the activation-induced deaminase (AID) or apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic peptide-like (APOBEC) ( Gerber and Keller, 1999 ; Jin et al, 2009 ; Iyer et al, 2011 ; Torres et al, 2014 ; Duan et al, 2022 ). In eukaryotes, the A-to-I RNA editing events are mediated by the ADAT1 homologous dimer at position 37 (A 37 ) in the anticodon loop of tRNA Ala ( Grosjean et al, 1996 ; Gerber et al, 1998 ; Maas et al, 1999 ; Jühling et al, 2009 ).…”

“…26 ADAR2 is an isoform encoded by a distinct gene in mammals, which is known to edit exonic RNA sequences, thereby recoding proteins. 27 Despite thousands of potential recoded sites being deduced from RNA sequencing, only few of them are characterized functionally. For instance, a gene knockout of ADAR2 which causes early death by excitotoxicity in mice can be reversed by the genomic knockin of a single Arg-607 residue into the GRIA2 glutamate receptor subunit instead of glycine, thereby mimicking Gln-to-Arg substitution via RNA editing.…”
