Using data collected with the CLEO detector operating at CESR e+e- collider sqrt[s]=3.97-4.26 GeV, we investigate 15 charmonium decay modes of psi(4040), psi(4160), and Y(4260) resonances. We confirm, 11 sigma significance, BABAR Y(4260)-->pi+pi- J/psi discovery, make first observation Y(4260)--> pi(0)pi(0) (5.1 sigma), find evidence for Y(4260)-->K+K- J/psi(3.7 sigma). measure cross sections sqrt[s]=4.26 GeV as sigma(pi+pi- J/psi)=58(+12)(-10)+/-4 pb, sigma(pi(0)pi(0) J/psi)=23(+12)(-8)+/-1...

Nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance mechanism that degrades transcripts containing nonsense mutations, preventing the translation of truncated proteins. NMD also regulates levels many endogenous mRNAs. While gradually understood, its physiological role remains largely unknown. The core genes upf1 and upf2 are essential in several organisms, which may reflect an important developmental for NMD. Alternatively, lethality these mutants might arise from their function...
