The abbreviated name of this ORF/gene:
Gtx
The description of the protein encoded in this ORF:
Gtx protein
The translational frameshift (ribosome slippage) involved:
  0
The ribosome read-through involved:
  no

Promoter activity was confirmed by Hartenbach and Fusseneger (2006). However, they claim IRES activity could
still be observed by direct transfection of uncapped in vitro transcribed RNA into Chinese hamster
ovary cells.
