Short Name | SMG8/SMG9 |
description | SMG8 and SMG9 are two subunits of the Smg-1 complex. They suppress Smg-1 kinase activity in the isolated Smg-1 complex, and are involved in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) in both mammals and nematodes []. NMD is a surveillance mechanism that detects and degrades mRNAs containing premature translation termination codons. |
