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: our_best_guess
The mRNA/+RNA description:
Bicistronic mRNA molecule coding for RLuc-CSFV_IRES+32nt-CAT_with_hairpin. Actually 33nt of the polyprotein
are covered in this construct so the construct should have been better named pRLuc-CSFV+33-hpCAT.
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 33nt from CSFV N-pro ORF followed by a KpnI site and by
hairpin stem loop followed by CAT ORF.
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): 1372-2094
Remarks:
The construct should have been better named pRLuc-CSFV+33-hpCAT.
