| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nRBM46 is an RNA‐binding protein that acts as a novel cofactor within an RNA editosome complex. Specifically, it partners with the C‐to‐U editing enzyme APOBEC1 to facilitate the editing of target transcripts such as ApoB mRNA. Using advanced low‐error circular RNA sequencing, researchers have identified additional cellular RNA substrates for the APOBEC1/RBM46 complex, thereby uncovering a broader regulatory network that influences post‐transcriptional modifications. This function suggests that RBM46 plays a pivotal role in modulating RNA diversity and gene expression by directing enzymatic editing to specific RNA targets and possibly impacting metabolic pathways linked to these transcripts."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nBy ensuring site‐specific C-to-U conversion, RBM46 likely contributes to the fine-tuning of gene expression, complementing the functions of other known APOBEC1 cofactors (such as A1CF and RBM47) and expanding the repertoire of RNA editing events within the cell. The identification and characterization of RBM46 not only enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying RNA editing but also provide potential insights into its role in human disease, where dysregulation of RNA modifications may lead to altered cellular functions."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Shanshan Wang, Kyumin Kim, Nicolas Gelvez, et al.
