  • Accurate identification of human Alu and non-Alu RNA editing sites.

    Ramaswami G, Lin W, Piskol R, Tan MH, Davis C, Li JB. Nat Methods. 2012; 9 (6): 579-81

    We developed a computational framework to robustly identify RNA editing sites using transcriptome and genome deep-sequencing data from the same individual. As compared with previous methods, our approach identified a large number of Alu and non-Alu RNA editing sites with high specificity. We also found that editing of non-Alu sites appears to be dependent on nearby edited Alu sites, possibly through the locally formed double-stranded RNA structure.
