Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Regulator of nonsense transcripts 1 (or Up-frameshift suppressor 1 homolog[ 5] ) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UPF1 gene .[ 6] [ 7]
Function
This gene encodes a protein that is part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex, the exon junction complex , involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance . mRNA surveillance detects exported mRNAs with truncated open reading frames and initiates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). When translation ends upstream from the last exon-exon junction, this triggers NMD to degrade mRNAs containing premature stop codons. This protein is located in both the cytoplasm and nucleus .[ 8] When translation ends, it interacts with the functional homolog of yeast Upf2p to trigger mRNA decapping . Use of multiple polyadenylation sites has been noted for this gene.[ 9]
