Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay among coagulation factor genes
Objective(s): Haemostasis prevents blood loss following vascular injury. It depends on the unique concert of events involving platelets and specific blood proteins, known as coagulation factors. The clotting system requires precise regulation and coordinated reactions to maintain the integrity of the vasculature. Clotting insufficiency mostly occurs due to genetically inherited coagulation fact...
متن کاملNonsense-mediated decay of human HEXA mRNA.
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), the loss of mRNAs carrying premature stop codons, is a process by which cells recognize and degrade nonsense mRNAs to prevent possibly toxic effects of truncated peptides. Most mammalian nonsense mRNAs are degraded while associated with the nucleus, but a few are degraded in the cytoplasm; at either site, there is a requirement for translation and for an intr...
متن کاملNonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
Translation and mRNA decay are coupled processes; the link is most obvious in the case of NMD (nonsense-mediated mRNA decay). NMD is a mechanism that drastically reduces the level of mRNA harbouring PTCs (premature translation termination codons). The defining event in NMD is premature translation termination and the key question is: what distinguishes premature from normal translation terminat...
متن کاملNonsense-mediated mRNA decay
Is it important? Absolutely! NMD probably evolved to eliminate abnormal transcripts due to routine errors in gene expression. For example, inefficient or inaccurate pre-mRNA splicing can generate an intron-derived in frame nonsense codon, or a shift in the reading frame and an exon-derived nonsense codon downstream of the shift. There are also natural substrates for NMD such as alternatively sp...
متن کاملThe Dharma of Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay in Mammalian Cells
Mammalian-cell messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are generated in the nucleus from precursor RNAs (pre-mRNAs, which often contain one or more introns) that are complexed with an array of incompletely inventoried proteins. During their biogenesis, pre-mRNAs and their derivative mRNAs are subject to extensive cis-modifications. These modifications promote the binding of distinct polypeptides that mediate a ...
