A novel computational strategy to identify A-to-I RNA editing sites by RNA-Seq data: de novo detection in human spinal cord tissue.

RNA editing is a post-transcriptional process occurring in a wide range of organisms. In human brain, the A-to-I RNA editing, in which individual adenosine (A) bases in pre-mRNA are modified to yield inosine (I), is the most frequent event. Modulating gene expression, RNA editing is essential for ce...
