Genetic compensation in β-actin mutants occurs independently of mutations that destabilize β-actin mRNA
2026-04-24
Abstract excerpt
Proper maintenance of gene expression in response to mutations or environmental fluctuations is critical for cell development and survival. Recently, a novel genetic compensation mechanism was described wherein mutant mRNA decay triggers increased transcription of paralogous genes. This effect was reported for several genes, including β-actin ( Actb ) in mouse embryonic stem cells, where Actb mRNA with a prematu...
