REMR: Identification of RNA Editing-mediated MiRNA Regulation in Cancers.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing has been implicated in cancer progression. However, a comprehensive understanding of how A-to-I RNA editing is incorporated into miRNA regulation to modulate gene expression in cancer remains unclear, given the lack of effective identification methods. To this end, we introduced an information theory-based algorithm named REMR to systematically identify 12,006 A-to-I RNA editing-mediated miRNA regulatory triplets (RNA editing sites, miRNAs, and genes) across ten major cancer types based on multi-omics profiling data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Through analyses of functional enrichment, transcriptional regulatory networks, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, we showed that RNA editing-mediated miRNA regulation p
