Term Information

Accession
GO:0000154
Name
rRNA modification
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
rRNA editing
Alternate IDs
GO:0016548
Definition
The covalent alteration of one or more nucleotides within an rRNA molecule to produce an rRNA 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'.
