Salt Effects on the Thermodynamics of a Frameshifting RNA Pseudoknot under Tension
Because of the potential link between -1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting and response of a pseudoknot (PK) RNA to force, a number of single molecule pulling experiments have been performed on PKs to decipher the mechanism of programmed ribosomal ...

The evolution, distribution and diversity of endogenous circoviral elements in vertebrate genomes [PDF]
Circoviruses (family Circoviridae) are small, non-enveloped viruses that have short, single-stranded DNA genomes. Circovirus sequences are frequently recovered in metagenomic investigations, indicating that these viruses are widespread, yet they remain ...

Frameshifting in the P6 cDNA Phage Display System
Phage display is a powerful technique that enables easy identification of targets for any type of ligand. Targets are displayed at the phage surface as a fusion protein to one of the phage coat proteins.

Programmable modulation of ribosomal frameshifting by mRNA targeting CRISPR-Cas12a system
Summary: Minus 1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting (−1 PRF) is a conserved translational regulation event essential for critical biological processes, including the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) replication.

Predicting ribosomal frameshifting efficiency [PDF]
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 ...

Thermodynamic control of −1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting
Programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) is an alternative translation strategy that causes controlled slippage of the ribosome along the mRNA, changing the sequence of the synthesized protein.

Rational design of a synthetic mammalian riboswitch as a ligand-responsive -1 ribosomal frame-shifting stimulator [PDF]
Metabolite-responsive RNA pseudoknots derived from prokaryotic riboswitches have been shown to stimulate −1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF), suggesting −1 PRF as a promising gene expression platform to extend riboswitch applications in higher ...
