... in the NMD pathway has been linked to NDD. RBM8a, eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF4)AIII and RNPS1 proteins are components of the exon–junction complex (EJC) deposited 20–24 nts upstream of each exon–exon junction process during splicing. EJCs serve as a platform for the binding of NMD factors...
