Chapter 14.3, Problem 9LO
Summary Introduction
To explain: The way in which a gene in a multicellular organism may produce different products in different types of cells.
Introduction: In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus, and pre-mRNA is synthesized. This pre-mRNA is further modified before translation in the cytoplasm. This is known as RNA processing. It includes the modification of mRNA ends and RNA splicing. During RNA splicing, the non-coding regions, that is introns, are excised from the RNA molecules, and the coding regions are joined.
