Deletions in cox2 mRNA result in loss of splicing and RNA editing and gain of novel RNA editing sites.

As previously demonstrated, the maize cox2 RNA is fully edited in cauliflower mitochondria. Use of constructs with a deleted cox2 intron, however, led to a loss of RNA editing at almost all editing sites, with only a few sites still partially edited. Likewise, one deletion in exon 1 and three in exo...
