The translation method used to study IRES function: in vitro
The in vitro translation system: rabbit reticulocytes lysate
The organism used for translation:
The temperature (in degrees of Celsia): 37
The relative translation efficiency in % of this IRES: 3.700
Name of IRES used as the positive control: GBV-B
Name of the plasmid used as the positive control. RepDBla
IRESite Id of the plasmid used as positive control. 306
The relative translation efficiency in % of the positive control: 100.000
The effect of 5'-cap analogs on translation: not tested
Rapamycin affects translation: not tested
Type of RNA subject to translation: exogenous_RNA_without_cap_without_polyA_tail
Remarks:
The constructs had the putative GBV-B IRES placed in front of the 1st cistron and EMCV IRES placed in the
intercistronic region and therefore it does not make sense to consider size of the intercistronic region
in respect to GBV-B IRES.
