Excited for this work by Michael Cortazar, an @JagannathanLab Postdoc, to be out as a preprint. So much hard work went into it, but it was well worth it 🤓

Genomic stop codon scanning reveals quantitative principles of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) degrades transcripts containing premature termination codons (PTCs), critically shaping the disease outcomes of protein-truncating variants. While existing NMD rules...

Excited to share a genome-wide analysis of pathogenic truncating variants that escape nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) that may produce truncated and/or altered protein tails that are likely to disrupt condensate behavior, contributing to human disease. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.6...
