General description

Double-stranded RNA-specific editase 1, or RNA-editing deaminase 1, or RNA-editing enzyme 1, or dsRNA adensine deaminase, and encoded by the human gene ADARB1/ ADAR2, DRADA2, RED1 is an enzyme that catalyzes the deamination of adenosine in dsRNA to inosine in a step called A to I RNA editing. This editing alters gene expression by changing codon usage and splicing sites as well as altering general RNA stability. So far the enzyme has been shown to edit and destabilize cancer associated genes as well as functional neurotransmitter receptors, and channel proteins. Interestingly, its activity appears to inhibit cell proliferation and migration in some cells and promote exocytosis and metabolism in others, likely to do differential affects on particular important mRNAs. Highly expressed in brain, heart with lower expression in lung, kidney and liver tissues. Interestingly RNA editing correlates with the grade of malignancy of the tumors, with the high grade tumors showing lower editing is seen.

The interferon (IFN)-mediated innate immune response is the first line of defense against viruses. However, an IFN-stimulated gene, the adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1), favors the replication of several viruses. ADAR1 binds double-stranded RNA and converts adenosine to
