This chapter describes biochemical assays that have been used in analyzing RNA editing in kinetoplastid mitochondria and to characterize the general mechanism of editing by the editosome. Studies using these assays have shown that the characteristics of each activity contribute to editing site selection, U addition and removal, and RNA ligation resulting in accurately edited mRNAs.
