Noisy splicing, more than expression regulation, explains why some exons are subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

BACKGROUND: Nonsense-mediated decay is a mechanism that degrades mRNAs with a premature termination codon. That some exons have premature termination codons at fixation is paradoxical: why make a transcript if it is only to be destroyed? One model supposes that splicing is inherently noisy and spuri...
