The rate of mRNA deadenylation varies inversely with the frequency of translation initiation for an mRNA:  the higher the frequency of initiation, the slower the rate of deadenylation.

P bodies are dense cytoplasmic domains many times the size of a ribosome. They are sites of translational repression that contain no ribosomes or translation factors. They are also major sites of mRNA degradation in the cytoplasm. Exon-junction complexes upf complex functions in nonsense-mediated decay and induces degradation of the mRNA by P body–associated 5′→3′ exoribonuclease XRN1
