Poor codon optimality as a signal to degrade transcripts with frameshifts
2018-06-13
Abstract excerpt
Living organisms are error-prone. Every second a single human cell produces over 100 transcripts with a substitution, frameshift or splicing error. Multiple mRNA quality control pathways exist to degrade these transcripts. Many of these pathways involve co-translational regulation of mRNA stability, such as nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and reduced stability of transcripts with suboptimal codon usage. Recent work...
