Abstract

Inconsistent with prevailing models for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) in mammals, the mRNA levels of immunoglobulin-mu (Ig-mu) genes with premature termination codons (PTCs) in the penultimate exon are still reduced by NMD when the intron furthest downstream is deleted. As in yeast, this exon junction complex-independent NMD of Ig-mu mRNAs depends on the distance between the termination codon and the poly(A) tail and suggests an evolutionarily conserved mode of PTC recognition.
