Correlation between amino acid residues converted by RNA editing and functional residues in protein three-dimensional structures in plant organelles

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In plant organelles, specific messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are subjected to conversion editing, a process that often converts the first or second nucleotide of a codon and hence the encoded amino acid. No systematic patterns in converted s...
