abstract = {We develop a stochastic model for the programmed frameshift
of ribosomes synthesizing a protein while moving along a
mRNA template. Normally the reading frame of a ribosome
decodes successive triplets of nucleotides on the mRNA in a
step-by-step manner. We focus on the programmed shift of the
ribosomal reading frame, forward or backward, by only one
nucleotide which results in a fusion protein; it occurs when
a ribosome temporarily loses its grip to its mRNA track.
Special "slippery" sequences of nucleotides and also
downstream secondary structures of the mRNA strand are
believed to play key roles in programmed frameshift. Here we
explore the role of an hitherto neglected parameter in
regulating −1 programmed frameshift. Specifically, we
demonstrate that the frameshift frequency can be strongly
regulated also by the density of the ribosomes, all of which
are engaged in simultaneous translation of the same mRNA, at
and around the slippery sequence. Monte Carlo simulations
support the analytical predictions obtained from a
mean-field analysis of the stochastic dynamics},
