摘要
锥体目原虫是最早从真核生物进化树的主干上分离出来的生物 ,也是最早拥有线粒体的真核生物。锥虫做为动基体目原虫拥有许多有趣的生化特性 ,RNA剪辑即是其中之一。本文从RNA剪辑的发现、剪辑的部位、作用。
Kinetoplastid protozoa are the earliest branching eukaryotes to possess a true mitochondrion.Trypanosome belonging to kinetoplastid protozoa is host to a variety of intriguing and unique features,including RNA editing.RNA editing in trypanosome produces mature and function mRNAs by posttranscriptional guide RNA (gRNA) directed uridylate insertion and deletion.In this article,the finding、site、function、extent and mechanism of RNA editing are described.
