New insights into no-go, non-stop and nonsense-mediated mRNA decay complexes.
Eukaryotes possess a variety of translational control mechanisms which function in the surveillance of mRNAs, discriminating between normal and aberrant translation elongation and termination, triggering mRNA decay.

Promoter Elements Regulate Cytoplasmic mRNA Decay [PDF]
Promoters are DNA elements that enable transcription and its regulation by trans-acting factors. Here, we demonstrate that yeast promoters can also regulate mRNA decay after the mRNA leaves the nucleus. A conventional yeast promoter consists of a core element and an upstream activating sequence (UAS).

Cotranslational microRNA mediated messenger RNA destabilization
MicroRNAs are small (22 nucleotide) regulatory molecules that play important roles in a wide variety of biological processes. These RNAs, which bind to targeted mRNAs via limited base pairing interactions, act to reduce protein production from those ...

Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay Begins Where Translation Ends.
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is arguably the best-studied eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) surveillance pathway, yet fundamental questions concerning the molecular mechanism of target RNA selection remain unsolved.

Tristetraprolin Mediates Interferon-γ mRNA Decay [PDF]
Tristetraprolin (TTP) regulates expression at the level of mRNA decay of several cytokines, including the T cell-specific cytokine, interleukin-2. We performed experiments to determine whether another T cell-specific cytokine, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), is also regulated by TTP and found that T cell receptor-activated T cells from TTP knock-out mice

Nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay: The challenge of telling right from wrong in a complex transcriptome
The nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay pathway selects and degrades its targets using a dense network of RNA‐protein and protein–protein interactions. Together, these interactions allow the pathway to collect copious information about the translating mRNA ...

Nuclear Decay Factors Crack Up mRNA [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Bresson et al. (2017) show that the nuclear RNA decay factors Nab3 and Mtr4 reshape the coding transcriptome during glucose starvation in budding yeast, placing nuclear mRNA metabolism as an important contributor of gene expression regulation.

Apoptosis is a tightly coordinated cell death program that damages mitochondria, DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Little is known about the fate of RNA as cells die.

A novel class of microRNA-recognition elements that function only within open reading frames. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well known to target 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) in mRNAs, thereby silencing gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.
