Question:

Alternative RNA splicing

Author: AMRIT KAUR



Answer:

- In alternative RNA splicing, different mRNA molecules are produced from the same primary transcript, depending on which RNA segments are treated as exons and which as introns​ - Alternative RNA splicing can significantly expand the repertoire of a eukaryotic genome​ - It is a proposed explanation for the surprisingly low number of genes in the human genome​
