name: nuclear mRNA surveillance of meiosis-specific transcripts
namespace: biological_process
def: "The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the selective degradation of meiosis-specific transcripts during vegetative growth, by a mechanism that requires determinant of selective removal (DSR) sequences in the targeted mRNAs and involves a YTH family protein." [PMID:16823445]
comment: Note that it is speculated that higher eukaryotic YTH-family protein may be involved in similar mechanisms to suppress gene regulation during gametogenesis or general silencing.
