Characterization of the mIF4G domains in the RNA surveillance protein Upf2
2022-12-13
Abstract excerpt
Thirty percent of all mutations causing human diseases generate mRNAs with premature termination codons (PTCs). Recognition and degradation of these PTC-containing mRNAs is carried out by the mechanism known as nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Upf2 is a scaffold protein known to be a central component of the NMD surveillance pathway. It harbors three middle domain of eukaryotic initiation factor 4G (mIF4G) doma...
