RDC: Ribosome-associated quality control

The stalling of ribosomes during protein synthesis results in the production of truncated polypeptides that can have deleterious effects on cells and therefore must be eliminated. In eukaryotes, this function is carried out by a dedicated surveillance mechanism known as ribosome-associated protein quality control (RQC).
