The shape of the nucleic acid molecule translated:
  linear
The quality of the mRNA/+RNA sequence:
  hopefully_full-length_mRNA
The mRNA/+RNA description: 
Putative in vivo CMV promoter-derived transcript produced from bicistronic plasmid pbetaGAL/Apaf1/CAT which
comprises beta galactosidase and chloramphenicol acetyltransferase as the first and the second cistron
respectively and the whole part of human Apaf-1 5' UTR (nt from -577 to nt +3 of the original sequence) mRNA
cloned between them.
The sequence ends at its 3'-end right after the poly(A) signal from BGH mRNA and thus the 3'-UTR might be
slightly wrong.
