Uridine insertion/deletion RNA editing in kinetoplastid mitochondria involves the participation of a number of ribonucleoprotein complexes which contain multiple proteins. There are currently multiple names to designate the major editing complex and the polypeptide components, which has led to confusion and lack of communication both within and outside this field. We urge that the field adapt a more unified nomenclature for the complexes and the component polypeptides and we present possible options.
在动基体线粒体中,尿嘧啶核苷的插入/缺失 RNA 编辑涉及许多核糖核蛋白复合物的参与,这些复合物包含多种蛋白质。目前,有多个名称来指定主要的编辑复合物和多肽成分,这导致了该领域内外的混淆和缺乏沟通。我们敦促该领域为复合物和组成多肽采用更统一的命名法,并提出了可能的选择。
