Tau‐induced deficits in nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay contribute to neurodegeneration
13 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: While brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies have evidence of altered RNA processing, we lack a mechanistic understanding of how altered RNA processing arises in these disorders and if such changes are causally linked to neurodegeneration. METHODS: Using Drosophila melanogaster models of tauopathy, we find that overall activity of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), a...
