RNA splicing Flashcards
1
Q
What does RNA splicing form
A
RNA splicing forms a mature mRNA transcript
2
Q
What are introns
A
Introns of primary transcript are non coding regions and are removed
3
Q
What are exons
A
Exons are coding regions and are joined together to form the mature transcript.
4
Q
What happens to the order of exons
A
The order of exons are unchanged during splicing
5
Q
Alternative RNA splicing
A
Different exons are joined together
