Question
What happens to mRNA that pass inspection by the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay surveillance system?Group of answer choicesthe mRNA is available to be transcribedthe mRNA is rapidly degradedthe mRNA is released into the cytosolthe mRNA is transported into the nucleusthe mRNA begins functioning as a long noncoding RNA
Solution
The mRNA that passes inspection by the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay surveillance system is released into the cytosol. This is where it can be translated into a protein by the ribosomes.
