Abstract Eighteen cytidines are changed to uridines in the coding sequence of
transcripts for cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 (cox2) in maize mitochondria.
The temporal relationship of editing and splicing was examined in cox2
transcripts by sequence analysis of spliced and unspliced cDNAs. Cloned cDNAs
of unspliced cox2 transcripts ranged from clones with no edited nucleotides to
completely edited forms, while spliced cDNAs were nearly completely edited.
Incompletely edited transcripts in the nascent pool of unspliced transcripts
represent intermediates of the editing process. These results indicate that
editing proceeds without a strong directional bias and suggest that RNA editing
is a posttranscriptional process.
