    Snippet: For translation to proceed through the secondary structural stem-loop in HIV-1, the thermodynamically weaker lower stem would unwind to allow the slippery sequence to occupy the P and A sites (UUU UUA) (Fig. 7B) . Slippage from the P and A sites may now occur as previously observed [26] , [67] ; that is, a portion of ribosomes undergo canonical pre-translocational frameshifting.

    Document: For translation to proceed through the secondary structural stem-loop in HIV-1, the thermodynamically weaker lower stem would unwind to allow the slippery sequence to occupy the P and A sites (UUU UUA) (Fig. 7B) . Slippage from the P and A sites may now occur as previously observed [26] , [67] ; that is, a portion of ribosomes undergo canonical pre-translocational frameshifting. The data presented in this paper indicates, however, that in a substantial fraction of ribosomal passages the translating ribosome would maintain the existing reading frame and would simply be 'slowed down' by the building tension (Fig. 7C) [64] .
