RNA editing in kinetoplastid protozoa.
RNA editing produces mature mRNAs by adding and removing uridines within the mitochondrial transcripts. The edited sequence appears to be specified by small complementary RNAs using a non-templated process that may have features resembling RNA splicing. The accumulation of edited mRNAs is developmentally regulated.
