IRESite record type: plasmid_with_promoter_and_putative_IRES_translationally_characterized
The shape of the nucleic acid molecule translated: linear
The quality of the mRNA/+RNA sequence: hopefully_full-length_mRNA
The mRNA/+RNA description:
Bicistronic mRNA transcribed by T7 polymerase in vitro or in vivo in BT7-H cells transiently expressing T7 Pol
coding for RLuc and CAT-fusion reporter genes separated by GBV-B IRES segment with 14 nts from GBV-B (incl.
ATG).
The mRNA/+RNA sequence represented in the +DNA notation:
Credibility of mRNA sequence: end-to-end_sequence_reverse_engineered_and_should_match_experiment
The description of the protein encoded in this ORF: Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase with N-terminal 5 aminoacid residues from GBV-B.
The translational frameshift (ribosome slippage) involved: 0
The ribosome read-through involved: no
The alternative forms of this protein occur by the alternative initiation of translation: not tested
The ORF absolute position (the base range includes START and STOP codons or their equivalents): 1468-2151
Remarks:
14 bases come from GBB polyprotein and the 15th base is g, according to Fig. 7a.
The integrity of in vitro synthesized T7 transcripts was verified by agarose gel electrophoresis. The
integrity of in vivo transcripts synthesized in BT7-H cells was dependent on the Tpsi terminator function and was
not confirmed in this work.
