When was Introns - album - created?

Introns - album - was created on 2006-03-13.


Why are introns copied and then removed from the RNA sequence?

Introns were copied and then removed from the RNA sequence because they were placeholders.


What is the role of introns in gene regulation?

Introns are removed through RNA splicing. They don't play a role.


Do mitochondria have introns?

No, prokaryotes do not have introns, and therefore do not do RNA processing. However, eukaryotes do.


Why do the introns have to br removed?

Introns are the non-coding parts of the gene. If you didn't remove introns, the wrong protein may be produced because they allow more than one protein to be produced from a single gene.


Which one exons or introns is spliced out when primary RNA is processed?

The introns are the sections which are spliced out to create the mature form of mRNA.


What is the small pieces of DNA that are edited out of the mRNA message before it is expressed?

During the transcription, when the mRNA is being processed, the introns are removed and the exons are connected together.


What are non-coding segments of DNA?

this is the correct answer i promise exonsIt's right ^^ It's not introns because introns do not code.


What happens to the introns and exons during transcription?

After transcription, the mRNA is processed by the spliceosome, which splices out the introns (because introns are not part of the coding sequences for protein), and "stitches" the exons together to form the final transcript that is sent to the ribosome for translation.


Why do eukaryotic genes have introns but introns are absent from prokaryotic cells?

Look at the sheer amount of DNA that is contained into a eukaryotic gene (eukaryotes have more DNA to code for and so they can leave some of the DNA out, also look at the way the DNA is formed i.e. Eukaryotic genes are double stranded helixes and prokayrotic genes are a single strand of circular dna.


What is the action of a spliceosome?

snip out introns from mRNA.
