title: RNA editing in the replication cycle of human hepatitis delta virus.
abstract: For some time it has been known that the RNA genome of human hepatitis delta virus (HDV) undergoes a specific RNA editing event. This review describes the editing phenomenon and its potential biological significance, and evaluates the data regarding the mechanism involved, including the possible relationship to other RNA editing phenomena.
