Remarks:
Bernstein et al., 1997 have used GI:189727 (alias M19719.1, 1482 b, 10-JAN-1995) record which contains
chromosomal DNA region. The size of UTRs does not match the description in the article. In contrast, the
GI:4505680 (3373 b, 27-NOV-2005) record matches the description of both UTR lengths (5'-UTR 1022b and 3'-UTR
1625b) quite well. This sequence aligns with the GI:189727 (alias M19719.1, 1482 b, 10-JAN-1995) with only 3
mismatches. Sella et al., 1999 refer to M19719.1 record and pinpoint discrepancies of their gene to it.
Therefore it seems in the original work from 1997 they used essentially the same cDNA fragment. Unfortunately,
they did not submit the sequence into GenBank. We have modified the M19719.1 sequence hopefully in the way as
described in Sella et al., 1999 as used throughout this IRESite record: "Referring to the RNA start site as nt
1 (which corresponds to nt 398 of human c-sis, accession no. M19719), the updated sequence includes the
following seven changes: nt 706 and 707 are GG (not CC), nt 921 is C (not U), nt 756 (G) and nt 786 (C) are
absent, and immediately following nt 863 and nt 868 there is an insertion of C. The nucleotide numbering
throughout the present study includes the above corrections." Surprisingly, the sequence we came up with
differs slightly (few isolated insertions/deletions) from the sequence in IRESdb database which received
the updated sequence directly from O. Elroy-Stein.

Bernstein et al., 1997 verified integrity of the bicistronic transcripts after in vivo transcription using
Northern blot analysis.



Han et al., 2003 refers to 2.8kb PDGF-B mRNA (GI:20987438) being produced from an internal promoter located
within the 5'-UTR region of the 3.8 kb mRNA studied by Bernstein et al., 1997 and Sella et al., 1999. The
promoter had activity of about 15/48 activity of control SV40 promoter with enhancer and contributed all
reported IRES-like activity from the second cistron.

Remarks:
Bernstein et al., 1997 stated in the article: "The D-IRES activity was conferred by the full-length (1022 nt)
5'-UTR or by a 395 nt segment spanning nucleotides 475–870 of the 5'-UTR. In contrast, the 273-nt
segment spanning nucleotides 215–488 of the 5'-UTR did not confer D-IRES activity and thereby served as
a negative control in our experiments (Fig. 3)."


The integrity of the bicistronic transcripts obtained in vivo in recombinant vaccinia virus infected cells
was verified by Northern blot.

Han et al. (2003) state that the cryptic promoter contributed all reported IRES-like activity from second
cistron.

The description of the protein interacting with the RNA:

The interacting RNA base range: 215-846
The organism where this RNA:protein interaction occurs:
Homo sapiens K-562 (ATCC CCL-243)
Remarks:
In vitro UV-crosslinking assay has shown p43 protein. Subsequent antibody assay confirmed the p43 protein has
hnRNP C epitope, seems to be hnRNP C1 and except its nuclear localization p43 also exists in cytoplasm of
differentiated cells (human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line K562). In addition, antibody assay also
revealed p44 protein (nuclear only) which seems to be hnRNP C2.

The interaction region might be a U-rich region in the range 500-680.
