title: [RNA-editing: genetic information is corrected after transcription].
abstract: RNA editing (posttranscriptional alterations to messenger RNAs) is revealed in different genetic systems, primarily, in mitochondria and chloroplasts. In this review, we discuss the prevalence of the process, characteristic features in different taxonomic groups, specificity, biological implication, and possible evolutionary origin of this process. This is the first review of RNA editing in Russian.
