Antisense-induced ribosomal frameshifting
Programmed ribosomal frameshifting provides a mechanism to decode information located in two overlapping reading frames by diverting a proportion of translating ribosomes into a second open reading frame (ORF). The result is the production of two proteins: the product of standard translation from ORF1 and an ORF1-ORF2 fusion protein. Such programmed frameshifting is commonly utilized as a gene ...
متن کاملStimulation of ribosomal frameshifting by antisense LNA
Programmed ribosomal frameshifting is a translational recoding mechanism commonly used by RNA viruses to express two or more proteins from a single mRNA at a fixed ratio. An essential element in this process is the presence of an RNA secondary structure, such as a pseudoknot or a hairpin, located downstream of the slippery sequence. Here, we have tested the efficiency of RNA oligonucleotides an...
متن کاملPredicting ribosomal frameshifting efficiency.
Many retroviruses use -1 ribosomal frameshifting as part of the mechanism in translational control of viral protein synthesis. Quantitative prediction of the efficiency of -1 frameshifting is crucial for understanding the viral gene expression. Here we investigate the free energy landscape for a minimal -1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting machinery, including the codon-anticodon base pairs at...
متن کاملRibosomal frameshifting on viral RNAs
Accurate maintenance of the translational reading frame by ribosomes is essential for the production of functional proteins and unsurprisingly, errors in frame maintenance have been estimated to occur at rates probably lower than 5 x 10 5 per codon (Kurland, 1992). However, an increasing number of examples have been documented where a purposeful shift in reading frame is programmed into the mRN...

Title of Document: mRNA SUICIDE: DESTABILIZATION BY PROGRAMMED RIBOSOMAL FRAMESHIFTING Jonathan L. Jacobs, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Associate Professor Jonathan D. Dinman, Department of Cell Biology & Molecular Biology Cis-acting mRNA elements that promote programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1 PRF) redirect a fraction of translating ribosomes into a new translational reading frame. In virus...
