Post-transcriptional modifications, such as mRNA editing, have the potential to diversify the proteome. Most animals do not show much mRNA editing that results in a codon change (recoding). However, squid (a member of the cephalopod taxa) were recently shown to ...

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play a vital role in many cellular processes such as RNA splicing, translation, gene regulation. However the vast majority of ncRNAs still have no functional annotation. One prominent approach for putative function assignment is clustering of transcripts ...
