Of the following,which is associated with the production of multiple mRNAs from a single gene?
A)alternative splicing
B)spliceosome mutations
C)polycistronic organization
D)gene rearrangement
E)both choices B and C

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Alternative splicing allows for the production of multiple mRNA transcripts from a single gene by selectively including or excluding different exon sequences during mRNA processing. Choice B (spliceosome mutations) and choice C (polycistronic organization) are not associated with the production of multiple mRNAs from a single gene. Choice D (gene rearrangement) could potentially affect the number of transcripts produced, but it is not specific to the production of multiple mRNAs.
