IRESite record type:
  negative_control_plasmid_with_promoter_and_without_putative_IRES
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 in vivo transcript mRNA with beta galactosidase and chloramphenicol acetyl transferase genes.
The sequence ends at its 3'-end right after the poly(A) signal from BGH mRNA and thus the 3'-UTR might be
slightly wrong.
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 plasmid:
pbetaGAL/CAT
The name of the promoter used to express this mRNA:
  CMV
Description of the plasmid (facultative for promoter-less plasmid records):
Plasmid containing beta galactosidase and chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter genes under the control of CMV promoter.
The in vivo produced transcripts are heterogeneous (due to any of promoter?/splicing?/cleavage?/breakage?):
  no
The in vivo produced heterogeneous transcripts occur due to alternative splicing:
  no
