which binds to specific promoter regions on the DNA and initiates the synthesis of the complementary RNA strand. The resulting primary transcript, known as pre-mRNA in eukaryotes, undergoes several ...
What's the difference between mRNA and pre-mRNA? It's all about splicing of introns. See how one RNA sequence can exist in nearly 40,000 different forms. Next, the snRNPs U2 and U4/U6 appear to ...
Widespread alterations in RNA processing (splicing, polyadenylation, decay, etc.) are common in dynamic cell states during development and malignancy. For example, many cancers harbor elevated levels ...
