The shape of the nucleic acid molecule translated: linear
The quality of the mRNA/+RNA sequence: hopefully_full-length_mRNA
The mRNA/+RNA description:
Bicistronic mRNA transcribed by T7 polymerase in vitro or in vivo in BT7-H cells transiently expressing T7 Pol
coding for RLuc and CAT reporter genes separated by GBV-B IRES segment truncated by deletion of bases 136-228.
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
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): 1375-2046

I can't recall exactly why it was named such but adding a 'C' creates a restriction sites so that seems
likely.
The integrity of in vitro synthesized T7 transcripts was verified by agarose gel electrophoresis. The
integrity of in vivo transcripts synthesized in BT7-H cells was dependent on the Tpsi terminator function and was
not confirmed in this work.
