Regulation of mRNA decay: decapping goes solo

Mol Cell. 2004 Jul 2;15(1):1-2. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2004.06.031.

Abstract

In this issue of Molecular Cell, Badis et al. demonstrate that autoregulated destabilization of the RPS28B mRNA is mediated by Edc3p interaction with an Rps28p/3'UTR mRNP complex. Subsequent recruitment of Dcp1p/Dcp2p to the complex appears to ensure rapid, deadenylation-independent decapping of the mRNA.
