Nonsense-Mediated RNA Decay Influences Human Embryonic Stem Cell Fate

Summary: Nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) is a highly conserved pathway that selectively degrades specific subsets of RNA transcripts. Here, we provide evidence that NMD regulates early human developmental cell fate. We found that NMD factors tend to be expressed at higher levels in human pluripote...
