Anna Glushkevich from the Shmyakin-Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry in the Russian Federation, presented at the Nanopore Community Meeting 2021 on “Direct RNA sequencing reveals unusual NMD targets in plants.” They study nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD), a mechanism that regulates up to 10% of cellular transcripts! This is the second time I hear about Nanopore […]
Evangelos Karousis is a Senior Researcher at the University of Bern, Switzerland and presented at the Nanopore Community Meeting 2021 on “Nanopore sequencing reveals endogenous NMD-targeted isoforms in human cells.” They began by describing what nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) can do how how they can be dangerous. Endogenous mRNAs can be targeted by NMD. In […]
