AmiGO 2: Term Details for "mRNA modification" (GO:0016556)

Accession: GO:0016556
Name: mRNA modification
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: mRNA editing
Alternate IDs: GO:0006381
Definition: The covalent alteration of one or more nucleotides within an mRNA molecule to produce an mRNA molecule with a sequence that differs from that coded genetically. Source: GOC:curators
Comment: The term 'RNA editing' (GO:0016547) was merged into 'RNA modification' (GO:0009451) on the basis of statements in the preface of Modification and Editing of RNA (ISBN:1555811337) that there is no clear distinction between modification and editing. Parallel changes were made for substrate (e.g. tRNA, rRNA, etc.) specific child terms of 'RNA editing'.
