Genome-wide identification of alternative splice forms down-regulated by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay in Drosophila
Alternative mRNA splicing adds a layer of regulation to the expression of thousands of genes in Drosophila melanogaster. Not all alternative splicing results in functional protein; it can also yield mRNA isoforms with premature stop codons that are degraded by the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD)...
