MRNA去帽
mRNA去帽（mRNA decapping）又称mRNA脱帽，是细胞中将mRNA的5′端帽水解还原成5′磷酸基的反应。真核生物细胞中正活跃转译的mRNA会与多核糖体结合，5′端帽会与eIF4E、eIF4G等起始因子结合而难与去帽酶接触，在养分缺乏或受病毒感染等逆境中mRNA的转译可能被抑制，使5′端帽裸露，DCP2等去帽酶可将其5′端帽移除，之后mRNA的5′磷酸基会被RNA外切酶Xrn1等识别，使mRNA被快速降解[1][2] 。去帽与mRNA降解可能皆是在处理小体（P-body）中进行[3]。原核生物中也有类似机制，mRNA的5′端帽则可被RppH等去帽酶水解，将三磷酸基转为单磷酸基，促进RNA被降解[4][5]。
真核生物中具无义突变的mRNA转译时会触发无义介导的mRNA降解（NMD）途径，将mRNA去帽后降解[6]。一些miRNA也可促进去帽酶与其目标的mRNA结合，进而将其去帽降解[7]。
