human ... ADAR(103)

General description

Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) protein is an RNA -specific C-6 adenosine deaminase. This protein is composed of one or two N-terminal Z-DNA binding domains, three centrally located double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) binding domains, and a C-terminal deaminase catalytic domain. This protein has two isoforms present in several human cell lines. The ADAR gene is mapped on the human chromosome at 1q21.3.
This gene encodes the enzyme responsible for RNA editing by site-specific deamination of adenosines. This enzyme destabilizes double stranded RNA through conversion of adenosine to inosine. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) protein facilitates the conversion of adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA). This protein is involved in the RNA interference pathway, to change the targeting and processing of microRNAs. Mutations in the ADAR gene lead to an auto-immune Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) and dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditarian (DSH).
