Abstract excerpt
In this study, we describe the efficiency of second gene translation in bicistronic constructs containing either a short (36bp) synthetic intercistron or known internal ribosomal entry sites (IRES). Experiments were performed using two different gene combinations: Herpes simplex virus-thymidine kinase (HSV-TK) and neomycine (NEO) or human glucocerebrosidase (hGC) and a methotrexate (MTX) resistant mutant...
