Full-round HHR-based RNA editing (deletion) assay based on ATPase 6 pre-edited mRNA. (A) The pre-edited ribozyme (pre-A6Rbz) is shown with the gA6Rbz gRNA that specifies the deletion of three Us from the editing site (ES) in the presence of editosome purified from mitochondrial extract (ME). The conserved (5′-CUGA-3′) of A6Rbz in the catalytic core essential for ribozyme activity is highlighted (Edited Site) and the line indicates where the three Us are removed by editing. The 3′ [32p] pCp-label of pre-A6Rbz is indicated by an asterisk. (B) Autoradiogram showing the edited and endonuclease cleavage products (arrows) generated only in the presence of both gA6Rbz and ME. Lane T1 is pre-A6Rbz RNA subjected to partial digestion by RNase T1, which is used as marker. Percentage of RNA editing efficiency in this assay was 8.8% and it was calculated as the percentage of total input pre-A6Rbz.
