N6-methyladenosine Modulates Nonsense-mediated mRNA Decay in Human Glioblastoma.

open access: yesCancer Research, 2019
The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification influences various mRNA metabolic events and tumorigenesis, however, its functions in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) and whether NMD detects induced carcinogenesis pathways remain undefined.

Is there a classical nonsense-mediated decay pathway in trypanosomes? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In many eukaryotes, messenger RNAs with premature termination codons are destroyed by a process called "nonsense-mediated decay", which requires the RNA helicase Upf1 and also, usually, an interacting factor, Upf2.

The impact of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay on genetic disease, gene editing and cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2019
Premature termination codons (PTCs) can result in the production of truncated proteins or the degradation of messenger RNAs by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

Nonsense suppression induced readthrough of a novel PAX6 mutation in patient‐derived cells of congenital aniridia

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Congenital aniridia is a severe ocular abnormality characterized by incomplete formation of the iris and many other ocular complications. Most cases are caused by the paired box 6 (PAX6) gene mutations generating premature termination codons ...

Mammalian UPF3A and UPF3B can activate nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay independently of their exon junction complex binding

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 2022
Nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is governed by the three conserved factors—UPF1, UPF2, and UPF3. While all three are required for NMD in yeast, UPF3B is dispensable for NMD in mammals, and its paralog UPF3A is suggested to only weakly activate or even

Organizing principles of mammalian nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genetics, 2013
Cells use messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to ensure the accurate dissemination of genetic information encoded by DNA. Given that mRNAs largely direct the synthesis of a critical effector of cellular phenotype, i.e., proteins, tight regulation of both the quality and quantity of mRNA is a prerequisite for effective cellular homeostasis. Here, we review nonsense-

Identification and characterization of novel factors that act in the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway in nematodes, flies and mammals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Immunity of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae SSY5 mRNA to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2014
The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway is a specialized pathway that triggers the rapid degradation of select mRNAs. Initially identified as a pathway that degrades mRNAs with premature termination codons, NMD is now recognized as a pathway that ...

Identification of novel post-transcriptional features in olfactory receptor family mRNAs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Olfactory receptor (Olfr) genes comprise the largest gene family in mice. Despite their importance in olfaction, how most Olfr mRNAs are regulated remains unexplored.
