mRNA degradation is a crucial process in eukaryotic cells that regulates gene expression by controlling the lifespan of messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules. This regulation is essential for maintaining ...

An evolutionarily conserved mRNA-degradation pathway is initiated by the removal of the 3′ poly(A) tail. This disrupts the translation initiation complex and provides degradative enzymes with ...

"Its function: When m6A is attached to an mRNA, it triggers the degradation of the mRNA as soon as the first proteins have been produced according to the blueprint it contains. This is ...
