Type: | Domain | Name: | Up-frameshift suppressor 2 |
Description: | This entry represents Up-frameshift suppressor 2 (also known as Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay protein 2). Transcripts harbouring premature signals for translation termination are recognised and rapidly degraded by eukaryotic cells through a pathway known as nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, three trans-acting factors (Upf1 to Upf3) are required for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay []. | Short Name: | Up-fram_suppressor-2 |
