Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for inhibiting intra and inter-cellular signaling pathways by modification of post-translation modification sites on select target RNA molecules. In certain example embodiments, the present disclosure provides methods for inhibiting intracellular phosphorylation of serine, threonine and tyrosine residues by editing the genetic codon of these amino acids by means of site-directed RNA editing or RNA molecules. Embodiments disclosed herein further provide methods of inhibiting pathological activation of cell signaling meditated by post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation, which are involved in many diseases, including cancer, immunodeficiency, infectious diseases, inflammatory disorders and neurodegenerative disorders.
