Abstract

Translational fidelity, programmed frameshifting, and nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) may require common proteins, reflecting related events in translation and ribosome function (reviewed in Czaplinski et al., 1999). This letter focuses on the possible link between programmed frameshifting and NMD, and seeks to reconcile apparently conflicting conclusions concerning a proposed overlap in the factors involved.
