IRESite record type:

The name of the plasmid:
pEGFP-N1(-P)
Description of the plasmid (facultative for promoter-less plasmid records):
Promoter-less variant of pEGFP-N1 (Clontech; #U55762) vector was prepared by excising the VspI/NheI fragment containing the CMV IE promoter, filling-in the recessed 3'-termini by Klenow fragment of the DNA polymerase I and by subsequent re-ligation of blunt ended vector.
The in vivo produced transcripts are heterogeneous (due to any of promoter?/splicing?/cleavage?/breakage?):
  not tested
The in vivo produced heterogeneous transcripts occur due to alternative splicing:
  not tested
A promoter reported in cDNA corresponding to IRES sequence:
  not tested
