Nonsense Mutation Readthrough (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Other
01

Overview

Nonsense mutation readthrough refers to the process by which the cellular translation machinery bypasses a premature termination codon (PTC) caused by a nonsense mutation in mRNA, allowing for the synthesis of full-length, potentially functional proteins instead of truncated, nonfunctional ones. It is being explored as a therapeutic strategy for genetic diseases caused by PTCs.

02

Mechanism of action

Inducing ribosomes to bypass premature termination codons (PTCs) and continue translation until reaching the natural stop codon; suppressing nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
