Genome-wide consequences of compromised NMD and their relavence for variable clinical phenotype of patients with UPF3B mutations [mRNA profiling]

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) surveillance pathways are best known to be involved in the degradation of mRNA with premature termination codons (PTCs). More recent studies demonstrate that the role of NMD pathways goes well beyond the degradation of PTC containing mRNA, into the regulation of cell function and thus normal development.
