Enabling stop codon read-through translation in bacteria as a probe for amyloid aggregation

Amyloid aggregation of the eukaryotic translation terminator eRF3/Sup35p, the [PSI (+)] prion, empowers yeast ribosomes to read-through UGA stop codons. No similar functional prion, skipping a stop codon, has been found in Escherichia coli, a fact possibly due to the efficient back-up systems found...
