PRFect: a tool to predict programmed ribosomal frameshifts in prokaryotic and viral genomes

Abstract Background One of the stranger phenomena that can occur during gene translation is where, as a ribosome reads along the mRNA, various cellular and molecular properties contribute to stalling the ribosome on a slippery sequence and shifting the ribosome into one of the other two alternate re...
