Spacer-length dependence of programmed −1 or −2 ribosomal frameshifting on a U(6)A heptamer supports a role for messenger RNA (mRNA) tension in frameshifting

Programmed −1 ribosomal frameshifting is employed in the expression of a number of viral and cellular genes. In this process, the ribosome slips backwards by a single nucleotide and continues translation of an overlapping reading frame, generating a fusion protein. Frameshifting signals comprise a h...
