Se-responsive mRNAs are targeted by NMD when Se is limiting. When Se is sufficient, SectRNA will bind at Sec UGA codons, preventing potential release factor initiation of NMD. When Se is limiting, the abundance of SectRNA is decreased, in turn increasing the likelihood of a release factor binding to Sec UGA codons and up-regulating NMD of vulnerable transcripts.
