How do ERNs work + how this differs from proteases They cleave mRNA transcripts before they can be translated into proteins, so the mRNA is not processed by the ribosomes and gets degraded quickly by cellular exonucleases. They work directly at the RNA level, unlike proteases which work on the final translated proteins. This means that they prevent new proteins from being produced, but they do not affect the existing pool of proteins.Hugoen
