A Brief History of RNA Editing
● Benne discovers four non-genomic U’s in the coxII (Cytochrome c oxidase II) transcripts of Trypanosoma
brucei and Crithidia fasciculata. (Benne et al., 1986)
● 34 non-genomic U residues found in the coxII transcripts of T. brucei. (Feagin et al., 1988)
● C to U substitution in apoB transcripts in mammals (Powell et al., 1987)
● Multiple C-to-U substitutions observed in the chloroplast and mitochondrial DNAs in angiosperms (Gray &
Covello, 1993)
● Residues of Guanosine in the coding sequences of paramyxovirus SV5 (Thomas et al., 1988)
