nonsense codon
1nonsense codon — (= nonsense triplet) The three codons, UAA (known as ochre), UAG (amber) and UGA (opal), that do not code for an amino acid but act as signals for the termination of protein synthesis. Any mutation that causes a base change which produces a… …

7Nonsense codon — A set of three adjacent bases in the DNA or their complementary bases in messenger RNA that specifies the premature end of a polypeptide chain. The three nonsense codons in messenger RNA are UAA, UAG, and UGA. When these codons are in their… …
8Nonsense mediated decay — (NMD) is a cellular mechanism of mRNA surveillance to detect nonsense mutations and prevent the expression of truncated or erroneous proteins. In mammals, NMD is triggered by exon junction complexes (EJC), which are initially deposited during pre …
9Nonsense-mediated decay — (NMD) is a cellular mechanism of mRNA surveillance that functions to detect nonsense mutations and prevent the expression of truncated or erroneous proteins. Following transcription, precursor mRNA undergoes an assemblage of ribonucleoprotein… …
10Nonsense mutation — In genetics, a nonsense mutation is a point mutation in a sequence of DNA that results in a premature stop codon, or a nonsense codon in the transcribed mRNA, and in a truncated, incomplete, and usually nonfunctional protein product. It differs… …
