N2  - Adenosine to inosine RNA-editing and pre-mRNA splicing largely occur co-transcriptionally and influence each other. Here we use mice deficient in either one of the two editing enzymes ADAR (ADAR1) or ADARB1 (ADAR2) to determine the transcriptome-wide impact of RNA-editing on splicing across different tissues. We find that ADAR has a 100× higher impact on splicing than ADARB1, although both enzymes target a similar number of substrates with a large common overlap. Consistently, differentially spliced regions frequently harbor ADAR editing sites. Moreover, catalytically dead ADAR also impacts splicing, demonstrating that RNA-binding of ADAR affects splicing. In contrast, ADARB1 editing sites are found enriched 5' of differentially spliced regions. Several of these ADARB1-mediated editing events change splice consensus sequences therefore strongly influencing splicing of some mRNAs. A significant overlap between differentially edited and differentially spliced sites suggests evolutionary selection towards splicing being regulated by editing in a tissue-specific manner.
