De novo STXBP1 Mutations in Two Patients With Developmental Delay With or Without Epileptic Seizures
Objectives: Mutations in the STXBP1 gene have been associated with epileptic encephalopathy. Previous studies from in vitro neuroblastoma 2A cells showed that haploinsufficiency of STXBP1 is the mechanism for epileptic encephalopathy.

Identification and characterization of novel factors that act in the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway in nematodes, flies and mammals [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance mechanism that degrades mRNAs harboring premature termination codons (PTCs). We have conducted a genome-wide RNAi screen in Caenorhabditis elegans that resulted in the identification of five novel NMD ...

Molecular Interaction of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay with Viruses
The virus–host interaction is dynamic and evolutionary. Viruses have to fight with hosts to establish successful infection. Eukaryotic hosts are equipped with multiple defenses against incoming viruses.

Quantitative proteomic dataset of the moss Physcomitrium patens SMG1 KO mutant line
Nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) mechanism controls the quality of eukaryotic mRNAs by degradation of aberrant transcripts with a premature stop codon (PTC) in a pioneer round of translation.

Identification of novel post-transcriptional features in olfactory receptor family mRNAs. [PDF]
Olfactory receptor (Olfr) genes comprise the largest gene family in mice. Despite their importance in olfaction, how most Olfr mRNAs are regulated remains unexplored.

Viruses and the cellular RNA decay machinery. [PDF]
The ability to control cellular and viral gene expression, either globally or selectively, is central to a successful viral infection, and it is also crucial for the host to respond and eradicate pathogens.

Identification of a novel human E-Cadherin splice variant andassessment of its effects upon EMT-related events [PDF]
Epithelial Cadherin (E-cadherin) is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. The E-cadherin decrease/loss is a hallmark of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a key event in tumor progression.

Modulation of nonsense mediated decay by rapamycin [PDF]
Rapamycin is a naturally occurring macrolide whose target is at the core of nutrient and stress regulation in a wide range of species. Despite well-established roles as an inhibitor of cap-dependent mRNA translation, relatively little is known about its effects on other modes of RNA processing.
