## Abstract Frameshift mutations at coding mononucleotide repeats (cMNR) are frequent in highβmicrosatellite instability (MSIβH) cancers. Frameshift mutations in cMNR result in the formation of a premature termination codon (PTC) in the transcribed mRNA, and these abnormal mRNAs are generally degra
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a process of mRNA surveillance that degrades transcripts harboring a premature termination codon (PTC). Mammalian NMD was mostly studied in cultured cells so far and there was no direct evidence yet that NMD could operate in the brain. We introduced, by homologo
