Abstract:
This is the first book devoted to NMD. The rationale for such a book is the enormous information that studies of NMD have provided on the intricacies of posttrancriptional gene expression. The first five sections of the book are divided according to organism and begin with chapters on S. cerevisiae and mammals, from which most NMD data derive. Chapters within these sections discuss the two basic ways cells differentiate between a termination codon that elicits NMD and one that does not. NMD in S. cerevisiae, D. melanogaster and, probably, C. elegans and plants appears to be triggered by an abn.
