Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nonstop mRNA decay (NSD) is a mechanism that immediately degrades aberrant mRNAs lacking stop codon. In this study, we attempted to reveal a mechanism of NSD in higher eukaryote and endogenous targets of NSD. As a result, we revealed pivotal factors of NSD in higher eukaryote. Furthermore, we identified mRNA intermediates produced in other mRNA degrading mechanisms as endogenous NSD targets. These results indicate that NSD is generally required to eliminate mRNA intermediates produced in other mRNA degrading mechanisms.
