Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay: from vacuum cleaner to Swiss army knife

Gabriele Neu-Yilik, Niels H Gehring, Matthias W Hentze, Andreas E Kulozik Genome Biology 2004, 5:218 (30 March 2004)

Two new approaches have identified physiological nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) substrates, and suggest that NMD functions as a multipurpose tool in the modulation of gene expression.

New connections in the prokaryotic toxin-antitoxin network: relationship with the eukaryotic nonsense-mediated RNA decay system

Vivek Anantharaman, L Aravind Genome Biology 2003, 4:R81 (26 November 2003)

Sequence profile analysis of the RelE- and ParE-type post-segregational cell killing (PSK) toxins from diverse bacteria and archaea has unified these proteins into a single superfamily. Further comparative analysis suggests that the core of the eukaryotic nonsense-mediated RNA decay system has probably evolved from a PSK-related system.
