Massively Systematic Transcript End Readout, "MASTER": Transcription Start Site Selection, Transcriptional Slippage, and Transcript Yields. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Cell, 2015
We report the development of a next-generation sequencing-based technology that entails construction of a DNA library comprising up to at least 4(7) (∼ 16,000) barcoded sequences, production of RNA transcripts, and analysis of transcript ends and transcript yields (massively systematic transcript end readout, "MASTER").

Productive mRNA stem loop-mediated transcriptional slippage: Crucial features in common with intrinsic terminators. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2015
Significance Perturbation of transcription register by RNA polymerase, transcription slippage, is used to yield additional protein products. Known functionally important cases involve a small number of short sequences without secondary structure.

Looking ultra deep: Short identical sequences and transcriptional slippage

open access: yesGenomics, 2011
Studying transcriptomes by ultra deep sequencing provides an in-depth picture of transcriptional regulation and it facilitates the detection of rare transcriptional events. Using ultra deep sequencing of amplicons we identified known isoforms and also various new low frequency variants.

Bacteriophage λ N protein inhibits transcription slippage by Escherichia coli RNA polymerase

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2014
Transcriptional slippage is a class of error in which ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerase incorporates nucleotides out of register, with respect to the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) template. This phenomenon is involved in gene regulation mechanisms and in the development of diverse diseases.

New insights into transcription fidelity: thermal stability of non-canonical structures in template DNA regulates transcriptional arrest, pause, and slippage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The thermal stability and topology of non-canonical structures of G-quadruplexes and hairpins in template DNA were investigated, and the effect of non-canonical structures on transcription fidelity was evaluated quantitatively.

Transcriptional slippage in the positive-sense RNA virus family Potyviridae. [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Rep, 2015
The family Potyviridae encompasses ~30% of plant viruses and is responsible for significant economic losses worldwide. Recently, a small overlapping coding sequence, termed pipo, was found to be conserved in the genomes of all potyvirids. PIPO is expressed as part of a frameshift protein, P3N-PIPO, which is essential for virus cell-to-cell movement ...

Propensity of a picornavirus polymerase to slip on potyvirus-derived transcriptional slippage sites. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Gen Virol, 2019
The substitution rates of viral polymerases have been studied extensively. However less is known about the tendency of these enzymes to ‘slip’ during RNA synthesis to produce progeny RNAs with nucleotide insertions or deletions. We recently described the functional utilization of programmed polymerase slippage in the family Potyviridae.

Ribosomal frameshifting and transcriptional slippage: From genetic steganography and cryptography to adventitious use. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res, 2016
Genetic decoding is not 'frozen' as was earlier thought, but dynamic. One facet of this is frameshifting that often results in synthesis of a C-terminal region encoded by a new frame. Ribosomal frameshifting is utilized for the synthesis of additional products, for regulatory purposes and for translational 'correction' of problem or 'savior' indels ...

The fidelity of transcription: RPB1 (RPO21) mutations that increase transcriptional slippage in S. cerevisiae. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2013
The fidelity of RNA synthesis depends on both accurate template-mediated nucleotide selection and proper maintenance of register between template and RNA. Loss of register, or transcriptional slippage, is particularly likely on homopolymeric runs in the template.

Use of transcriptional slippage for diverse gene expression

open access: yesActa Biochimica Polonica, 2021
We present here an alternative for two-promoter systems ensuring highly diverse expression of several genes from a single promoter. This approach assumes an introduction of a deletion mutation into an A/T homopolymeric run in a gene’s proximal part, and employs the transcriptional slippage mechanism for insertion-dependent reinstatement of the proper ...
