The quality of the mRNA/+RNA sequence:
  hopefully_full-length_mRNA
The mRNA/+RNA description: 
Putative spliced in vivo SV40 promoter-derived transcript produced from bicistronic plasmid pRL which
comprises renilla and firefly luciferases as the first and the second cistron, respectively and the part of
mouse hif-1alpha 5' UTR (nt from -289 to nt +5 of the original sequence) mRNA.
The sequence ends at its 3'-end right after the poly(A) signal from SV40 mRNA and thus the 3'-UTR might be
slightly wrong.
The mRNA/+RNA sequence represented in the +DNA notation:


Warning: mRNA sequence when devoid of trailing 'A's is still not a substring of the plasmid sequence. Is it because an intron is spliced out? Stay calm then. :-)

Description of the plasmid (facultative for promoter-less plasmid records):
Plasmid containing part of mouse hif-1aplha 5' UTR (nt from -289 to nt +5 of the original sequence) inserted between renilla and firefly luciferase reporter genes.
