Abstract
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play a key role in gene expression and post-transcriptional RNA regulation. As integral components of ribonucleoprotein complexes, RBPs are susceptible to genomic and RNA Editing derived amino acid substitutions, impacting functional interactions. This article explores the prevalent RNA Editing of RBPs, unravelling the complex interplay between RBPs and RNA Editing events. Emphasis is placed on their influence on single amino acid variants (SAAVs) and implications for disease development. The role of Proteogenomics in identifying SAAVs is briefly discussed, offering insights into the RBP landscape. RNA Editing within RBPs emerges as a promising target for precision medicine, reshaping our understanding of genetic and epigenetic variations in health and disease.
期刊介绍：
Much of contemporary investigation in the life sciences is devoted to the molecular-scale understanding of the relationships between genes and the environment — in particular, dynamic alterations in the levels, modifications, and interactions of cellular effectors, including proteins. Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences offers an international publication platform for basic as well as applied research; we encourage contributions spanning both established and emerging areas of biology. To this end, the journal draws from empirical disciplines such as structural biology, enzymology, biochemistry, and biophysics, capitalizing as well on the technological advancements that have enabled metabolomics and proteomics measurements in massively parallel throughput, and the development of robust and innovative computational biology strategies. We also recognize influences from medicine and technology, welcoming studies in molecular genetics, molecular diagnostics and therapeutics, and nanotechnology.
Our ultimate objective is the comprehensive illustration of the molecular mechanisms regulating proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and small metabolites in organisms across all branches of life.
In addition to interesting new findings, techniques, and applications, Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences will consider new testable hypotheses to inspire different perspectives and stimulate scientific dialogue. The integration of in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches will benefit endeavors across all domains of the life sciences.
