Title: HIV-1 frameshift efficiency is primarily determined by the stability of base pairs positioned at the mRNA entrance channel of the ribosome

    Snippet: In this work, we report a strong correlation between the thermodynamic stability of the first 3-4 bp at the base of the stem-loop and frameshift efficiency in HIV-1. We therefore hypothesize that the frameshift mechanism involves a thermodynamic block to translocation, determined by the local stability of base pairs positioned directly at the mRNA entrance channel. This is in agreement with previous studies investigating antisense-induced framesh.....
    Document: In this work, we report a strong correlation between the thermodynamic stability of the first 3-4 bp at the base of the stem-loop and frameshift efficiency in HIV-1. We therefore hypothesize that the frameshift mechanism involves a thermodynamic block to translocation, determined by the local stability of base pairs positioned directly at the mRNA entrance channel. This is in agreement with previous studies investigating antisense-induced frameshifting using either mixed locked nucleic acid/DNA (73) or morpholino/RNA (38) oligonucleotides. When these oligonucleotides were used to direct antisenseinduced frameshifting, the local stability of the duplex was also critical to frameshift stimulation (38, 73) .
