Remarks:
The integrity of the transcripts was assessed by RT-PCR (Rohn et al., 1996), S1 nuclease protection (Lauring
et al., 2000, Figure 1B), Northern blot (Lauring et al., 2000, Supplemental Figure 1). Please note we do not
have sequence of the vector not even of the ORFs flanking the putative IRES.
