Research Abstract |
We have analyzed two major of aberrant mRNAs, stop codon-less mRNA and nonsense-containing mRNA, to reveal the mechanism of the aberrant translation recognition and stimulation of aberrant products degradation. We found that mechanism of stop codon-less mRNA degradation by Dom34:Hbs1 complex. We also found that the mis-folded conformation of PTC products is important for leading to its degradation by Upf factors.
