Nonsense Mediated mRNA Decay

Descriptor Spanish:

Degradación de ARNm Mediada por Codón sin Sentido

Spanish from Spain

Descriptor	degradación del ARNm mediada por codón sin sentido
Entry term(s)	degradación del ARNm mediada por mutaciones terminadoras
Scope note:	Un proceso metabólico del ARNm que distingue a un normal CODÓN DE TERMINACIÓN de un codón de terminación prematuro (CODÓN SIN SENTIDO) y facilita la rápida degradación del ARNm aberrante que contiene codones de terminación prematuros.
