The Arabidopsis NMD Factor UPF3 is Feedback-Regulated at Multiple Levels and Plays a Role in Plant Response to Salt Stress

The Arabidopsis NMD Factor UPF3 is Feedback-Regulated at Multiple Levels and Plays a Role in Plant Response to Salt Stress

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a eukaryotic RNA surveillance mechanism that degrades aberrant transcripts and controls the levels of many normal mRNAs. It was shown that balanced expression of the NMD factor UPF3 is essential for the maintenance of proper NMD homeostasis in Arabidopsis. UPF3...
