A deletion of a guanidine at codon 133 (ΔG133; corresponding to residue 112 of the mature protein), resulted in the premature stop at position 145, was first reported in two siblings of Pakistani origin [9].
This heterozygous change predicts a frameshift at amino acid 371, leading to a premature stop at position 378 (DSC2 G371Figure, Figure 1 D).

Furthermore, when available information is limited, many different opinions on these risks and benefits are possible, but caution should be exercised to avoid premature or unwarranted positions.
In plants NMD has been reported to act also in case of intronless genes [ 46] thus showing that different rules govern this mechanism in respect to mammals; however several genes containing a premature stop codon positioned 55 nucleotides upstream of the last exon-exon junction have been reported to be subjected to NMD in plants [ 41, 47- 49].
In our view, therefore, it is premature to regard the position of Tardigrada as the sister group of Onychophora and Arthropoda as "resolved" [ 12].
