The mRNA/+RNA description: 
Putative spliced bicistronic mRNA derived from pSL based plasmid with part of the 5' UTR(nt 997 to nt 1152) of
human myelin transcription factor 2 (MYT2) mRNA cloned between chloramphenicol acetyltransferase and firefly
luciferase in the reverse orientation (actually CAT-[MYT2-IRES nt 1152 to nt 997]-FFluc). The mRNA produced
was used as the negative control to prove the MYT2 IRES activity.
The mRNA/+RNA sequence represented in the +DNA notation:


Warning: mRNA sequence when devoid of trailing 'A's is still not a substring of the plasmid sequence. Is it because an intron is spliced out? Stay calm then. :-)

Remarks:
The intercistronic region of the plasmid contains fragment of human myelin transcription factor 2 (MYT2) [nt
997 to nt 1152 of 5' UTR] mRNA in the reverse orientation (actually nt 1152 to nt 997). The mRNA produced was
used as the negative control to prove MYT2 IRES activity.
