Truncated RNA-binding protein production by DUX4-induced systemic inhibition of nonsense-mediated RNA decay
2021-06-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance mechanism that degrades both canonical and aberrant transcripts carrying premature translation termination codons. NMD is thought to have evolved to prevent the synthesis of toxic truncated proteins. However, whether global inhibition of NMD results in widespread production of truncated proteins is unknown. A human genetic disease, facioscapulo...
