Abstract
The molecular mechanisms that generate the developmental and physiological complexity found within cephalopods are not well understood. In this issue of Cell, Birk et al. and Rangan and Reck-Peterson show that cephalopods differentially edit their RNA in response to temperature changes and that this editing has consequences on protein function.
