Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Splicing is a process in eukaryotic cells where introns (non-coding regions) are removed from the pre-mRNA transcript and exons (coding regions) are joined together. This process is essential for generating a mature mRNA molecule that can be translated into a protein.
