Ribosomal frameshifting, jumping and readthrough.
New examples of high-level ribosomal frameshift and readthrough events have been described over the past year and a half. These include -1 frameshifting at tandem codons and +1 frameshifting at neighboring slow codons. Several bizarre examples of ribosome jumping and multiple stop-codon readthrough continue to perplex investigators in this field.
