Functions of the RNA Editing Enzyme ADAR1 and Their Relevance to Human Diseases
Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) convert adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). Among the three types of mammalian ADARs, ADAR1 has long been recognized as an essential enzyme for normal development. The interferon-inducible ADAR1p150 is involved in immune responses to both exogenous and endogenous triggers, whereas the functions of the constitutively expressed ADAR1p110...
متن کاملThe RNA-Editing Enzyme ADAR1 Controls Innate Immune Responses to RNA
The ADAR RNA-editing enzymes deaminate adenosine bases to inosines in cellular RNAs. Aberrant interferon expression occurs in patients in whom ADAR1 mutations cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) or dystonia arising from striatal neurodegeneration. Adar1 mutant mouse embryos show aberrant interferon induction and die by embryonic day E12.5. We demonstrate that Adar1 embryonic lethality is res...
متن کاملOverexpression of cyclin D1 enhances gene amplification.
Defects in cell cycle control and increased genomic instability, including gene amplification, often occur during cancer development. Cyclin D1 plays a pivotal role in G1, and this gene is frequently amplified and overexpressed in several types of human cancer. This study demonstrates that ectopic overexpression of cyclin D1 in a rat liver epithelial cell line markedly increased the yield of ce...
متن کاملLiver disintegration in the mouse embryo caused by deficiency in the RNA-editing enzyme ADAR1.
ADAR1 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA-1) is widely expressed in mammals, but its biological role is unknown. We show here by gene targeting that ADAR1 selectively edits in vivo two of five closely spaced adenosines in the serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine subtype 2C receptor pre-mRNA of nervous tissue; and hence, site-selective adenosine-to-inosine editing is indeed a function of ADAR1. Remarkab...
متن کاملRibonuclease L mediates the cell-lethal phenotype of double-stranded RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 deficiency in a human cell line
ADAR1 isoforms are adenosine deaminases that edit and destabilize double-stranded RNA reducing its immunostimulatory activities. Mutation of ADAR1 leads to a severe neurodevelopmental and inflammatory disease of children, Aicardi-Goutiéres syndrome. In mice, Adar1 mutations are embryonic lethal but are rescued by mutation of the Mda5 or Mavs genes, which function in IFN induction. However, the ...
