The frameshift efficiencies of the constructs containing these mutations were assessed in vitro and in cultured cells and are presented in Figure 4 (b) (see also Table 1 To provide an independent support for the pseudoknot structure in subtype MVP5180 of HIV-1 group O frameshift stimulatory signal, we made a structural probing analysis of an RNA fragment encompassing the gag/pol frameshift region of this subtype. Our results show that the frameshift stimulatory signal of subtype MVP5180 of HIV-1 group O is a pseudoknot, where 8 nt of a 10-nt loop capping an 8-bp stem base-pair with a downstream complementary sequence. ./cache/cord-286352-uftl1mx5.txt ./txt/cord-286352-uftl1mx5.txt
