Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a major translation-dependent RNA degradation pathway required for embryo development and telomere maintenance. Core NMD factors Upf1, Upf2 and Upf3 are conserved from yeast to mammals but a model of the NMD machinery compatible with all eukaryotes is not yet av...
