摘要
无义介导的mRNA降解机制(nonsense-mediated mRNA decay,NMD)是真核细胞内重要的RNA质量监控机制,能够识别并降解含有提前终止子(premature termination codon,PTC)的mRNA,避免细胞内积累有害的截短蛋白质产物。同时,NMD机制还调控着大量不含PTC的mRNA稳定性,影响其蛋白质产物的含量。现综述了NMD机制的底物、调控因子及其对人类遗传病治疗意义的最新研究进展。
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay（NMD） is a mRNA quality-control mechanism in eukaryotic cells.NMD recognizes and degrades mRNAs that harbor a premature termination codon（PTC）,thereby avoiding the accumulation of harmful truncated proteins.Besides,NMD affects stabilities of a plethora of physiological mRNAs,and regulates the concentrations of encoding proteins.Here,the recent studies on the substrates of NMD,regulators and its potential therapeutic significance for human genetic diseases were summarized.
