A-to-I RNA editing modulates the lncRNA-0021 binding site and tunes mmu-miR-6361 selectivity
🧪 Overview
ADAR-dependent editing could strengthen or weaken a pre-existing miR-6361 site by altering local pairing potential or RNA structure. The debate supports this as a plausible modifier of interaction strength, but not as the primary determinant of baseline specificity unless editing at the relevant adenosines is directly demonstrated.
