Three types of recoding events. Translational readthrough extends the polypeptide C-terminally allowing the production of two protein isoforms from the same transcript. Frameshifting produces typically two functional polypeptides from different reading frames of the same mRNA. Bypassing is a recoding event that synthesizes one protein from two open discontinuous reading frames.
