Shifty ciliates: frequent programmed translational frameshifting in euplotids

Abstract

Recent work suggests that there is a high frequency of programmed +1 translational frameshifting in ciliates of the Euplotes genus. Frequent frameshifting may have been potentiated by stop codon reassignment, which is also a feature of this group.
