The quality of the mRNA/+RNA sequence:
  3UTR_possibly_incomplete
The mRNA/+RNA description: 
Putative in vivo CMV promoter-derived transcript produced from bicistronic plasmid
pbetaGAL/HIAP2(870-1222)/CAT which comprises beta galactosidase and chloramphenicol acetyltransferase as the
first and the second cistron respectively and the part of human c-IAP1 5' UTR (nt from -353 to nt -1 of the
original sequence) mRNA cloned between them.
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.

Remarks:
The relative IRES activity was determined in p86-cotrasfected HEK293T cells because the caspase-mediated
cleavage fragment of p97/DAP5/NAT1, p86, selectively enhances translation of c-IAP1 IRES element both in vivo
and in vitro in a manner that is independent of the translation of the upstream cistron
(Warnakulasuriyarachchi et al., 2004).
