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 th...
