Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal mutants (maintenance of frame = mof) in which the efficiency of -1 ribosomal frameshifting is increased can be isolated using constructs in which lacZ expression is dependent upon a -1 shift of reading frame. We isolate a new mof mutation, mof9, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and show that it is complemented by both single and multi-copy 5 S rDNA clones. Two independent insertion mutations in the rDNA...
