Yes, introns are transcribed along with exons during the process of gene expression, but they are later removed from the mRNA through a process called splicing before the final mRNA is translated into a protein.
No, introns are not present in prokaryotes. They are found in eukaryotic organisms, where they are removed during the process of gene expression.
No, prokaryotes do not remove introns during gene expression.
Eukaryotic genes are comprised of several sections, with the two main ones being exons, which are transcribed and translated to form proteins, and introns, which are transcribed but not translated and are usually spliced out during pre-mRNA processing. Promoters and enhancers are other sections involved in regulating gene expression.
Introns are non-coding sections of DNA that are removed during the process of gene expression. They help regulate gene expression and can also contribute to genetic diversity through alternative splicing.
There are several regions in a gene that are not translated. Promotor and enhancer regions as well as start sites such as the TATA box are not transcribed. Introns and Exons are both transcribed but introns are spliced out leaving only exons to be translated into proteins.

Yes, exons are not removed during the process of splicing in gene expression. Instead, introns are removed and exons are joined together to form the mature mRNA molecule.
Exons are spliced together during gene expression to remove non-coding regions called introns and create a continuous sequence of coding regions that can be translated into a functional protein. This process ensures that the genetic information is accurately transcribed and translated into the correct protein, allowing for proper cellular function and organism development.
Yes, both intron and exon regions are transcribed into the primary transcript during transcription. However, only the exons are retained in the processed mRNA after introns are removed through the process of splicing.
Exons are the parts of a gene that are kept and expressed, while introns are the parts that are removed during the process of splicing.
Exons are the parts of the mRNA that are kept and introns are the parts that are removed during the process of mRNA splicing.
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.
Introns are non-coding sections of DNA that are removed during the process of gene expression in eukaryotes. They do not code for proteins but play a crucial role in regulating gene expression by affecting how the coding regions (exons) are spliced together. This process, known as alternative splicing, allows a single gene to produce multiple protein variants, increasing the diversity of proteins that can be produced from a single gene.
