Abstract
Cell viability largely depends on the surveillance of mRNA export and translation. Upon pre-mRNA processing and nuclear quality control, mature mRNAs are exported into the cytoplasm via Mex67-Mtr2 attachment. At the cytoplasmic site of the nuclear pore complex, the export receptor is displaced by the action of the DEAD-box RNA helicase Dbp5. Subsequent quality control of the open reading frame requires translation. Our studies suggest an involvement of Dbp5 in cytoplasmic no-go-and non-stop decay. Most importantly, we have also identified a key function for Dbp5 in translation termination, which identifies this helicase as a master regulator of mRNA expression.
