Genetic Characterization of smg-8 Mutants Reveals No Role in C. elegans Nonsense Mediated Decay
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
The nonsense mediated decay (NMD) pathway degrades mRNAs bearing premature translation termination codons. In mammals, SMG-8 has been implicated in the NMD pathway, in part by its association with SMG-1 kinase. Here we use ...
A Spontaneous Mutation in Contactin 1 in the Mouse
(Public Library of Science, 2011)
Mutations in the gene encoding the immunoglobulin-superfamily member cell adhesion molecule contactin1 (CNTN1) cause lethal congenital myopathy in human patients and neurodevelopmental phenotypes in knockout mice. Whether ...
