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:
In vivo CMV driven transcript produced from monocistronic plasmid pMC-delta_1 containing part of gypsy
5' UTR (nt from -511 to nt +5 of the original sequence) mRNA cloned upstream of the beta-galactosidase.
The mRNA/+RNA sequence represented in the +DNA notation:
Credibility of mRNA sequence: end-to-end_sequence_reverse_engineered_and_should_match_experiment
The name of the promoter used to express this mRNA: CMV
Aliases of the plasmid name:
Alias: pMC-D1
Description of the plasmid (facultative for promoter-less plasmid records): Plasmid containing part of gypsy 5' UTR (nt from -511 to nt +5 of the original sequence) and
beta-galactosidase reporter gene.
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: no (not convincing)
Summary of possible issues when IRES cDNA is experimentally transcribed in vivo:
