Alternative splicingplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigIntron splicing: the act of remove introns and joining exons from pre-mRNA to form an mRNA. This occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and is catalyzed by an enzyme called the spliceosome.: intronplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigIntron: sequences in a pre-mRNA that sit between exons and are removed by splicing. Formally speaking, introns are defined as being part of pre-mRNA, but the DNA sequence that codes for introns can also be informally described as introns. splicingplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigIntron splicing: the act of remove introns and joining exons from pre-mRNA to form an mRNA.
