Cellular variability of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay [PDF]
Here the author developed a single-cell reporter system to identify cell-to-cell variability of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). This approach provides a sensitive tool to investigate cellular heterogeneity of NMD in various physiological conditions.

Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay, a Finely Regulated Mechanism [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is both a mechanism for rapidly eliminating mRNAs carrying a premature termination codon and a pathway that regulates many genes.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay among coagulation factor genes [PDF]
Objective(s): Haemostasis prevents blood loss following vascular injury. It depends on the unique concert of events involving platelets and specific blood proteins, known as coagulation factors.

Antisense oligonucleotide–directed inhibition of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a cellular quality-control mechanism that is thought to exacerbate the phenotype of certain pathogenic nonsense mutations by preventing the expression of semi-functional proteins. NMD also limits the efficacy of read-through compound (RTC)-based therapies.

Upstream open-reading frames (uORFs) are potent cis-acting regulators of mRNA translation and nonsense-mediated decay (NMD). While both AUG- and non-AUG initiated uORFs are ubiquitous in ribosome profiling studies, few uORFs have been experimentally ...

RNA binding proteins PTBP1 and HNRNPL regulate CFTR mRNA decay
Background: CFTR nonsense alleles generate negligible CFTR protein due to the nonsense mutation: 1) triggering CFTR mRNA degradation by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and 2) terminating CFTR mRNA translation prematurely.

Viral subversion of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay [PDF]
Viruses have evolved in tandem with the organisms that they infect. Afflictions of the plant and animal kingdoms with viral infections have forced the host organism to evolve new or exploit existing systems to develop the countermeasures needed to offset viral insults.

Attenuation of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay enhances in vivo nonsense suppression. [PDF]
Nonsense suppression therapy is an approach to treat genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations. This therapeutic strategy pharmacologically suppresses translation termination at Premature Termination Codons (PTCs) in order to restore expression of ...

Intracellular calcium regulates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay [PDF]
The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway selectively eliminates aberrant transcripts containing premature translation termination codons and regulates the levels of a number of physiological mRNAs. NMD modulates the clinical outcome of a variety of human diseases, including cancer and many genetic disorders, and may represent a target for ...

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay in mammals [PDF]
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) in mammalian cells generally degrades mRNAs that terminate translation more than 50-55 nucleotides upstream of a splicing-generated exon-exon junction (reviewed in [Maquat, 2004a][1]; [Nagy and Maquat, 1998][2]).
