Consequences of RNA editing in Symbiodinium. (A) Superimposition shows the conformational change in predicted 3D structure of atpB, before (blue) and after (gray) RNA editing. Modeling the interaction of atpA & atpB (B) and psaA & psaB (C) after RNA editing. Regions in purple show significant conformational changes, leading to functional recovery after editing. (D) Rank scatter plot showing correlation between MW and GRAVY of plastid genes after editing (rho = −0.84, P value = 0.0003). (E) Rank test between protein identity and GRAVY change after editing shows no correlation (rho = 0.07, P value = 0.83). RNA editing conserves 3D structure and hydrophobicity in photosystem proteins.
