Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay factor UPF1 promotes aggresome formation
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a translation-coupled process that eliminates mRNAs containing premature translation-termination codons. Here the authors identify a role for the NMD factor UPF1 in protein quality control, whereby truncated misfolded polypeptides are cleared through autophagy.
