title: RNA editing in kinetoplastid protozoa.
abstract: 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.
