Abstract

This article focuses on the evolution of apolipoprotein B (apoB) mRNA editing. We review the tools commonly used in homology search and phylogenetic analysis and demonstrate their use in the analysis of RNA-editing enzymes. The ultimate goal is to apply these tools to answer two questions: How did apoB mRNA editing come about? How might it be related to other base substitution editing in the course of evolution.
