Category:GO:0016556 ! mRNA modification
name: mRNA modification
namespace: biological_process
alt_id: GO:0006381
def: "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." [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'.
synonym: "mRNA editing" NARROW [GOC:dph, GOC:hjd, GOC:tb]
