An RNA surveillance pathway that removes certain transcripts after a termination event interpreted in an abnormal context. It can alter observed transcript isoform abundance after RNA splicing, so mature abundance is not always a direct measure of the production ratio.
A member of the UPF surveillance-factor system. Artificial recruitment downstream of a termination codon can trigger nonsense-mediated decay when the required downstream machinery is present.
