FIGURE 3.

Effect of mutations of phylogenetically conserved motifs of Eo/Sc eRF1 on shifty stop frameshifting. The efficiency of programmed +1 frameshifting on the same programmed frameshift sites represented in Figure 2 (identified in the legend) was measured in the presence of six variant forms of eRF1 as shown. Error bars, SEM.
