mRNA that includes introns due to errors in mRNA processing will generate dysfunctional or truncated proteins. If the intron introduces a stop codon in the middle of the sequence a truncated protein will be produced. If the intron does not introduce a stop codon the end result is still going to be a protein with many unnecessary amino acids that will most likely interfere with folding and stop it from becoming functional.

What do you mean by splicing in electronics?
Splicing means joining in optical fibers.a process called splicing takes place to join two fibers.
Can you compare gene splicing with gene cloning and recombinant DNA?
Splicing is a cellular process where the DNA sequence is 'edited' before RNA is synthesised from it. This means that one DNA sequence can create different proteins. Sections that are spliced out are called introns, while exons are the sequences that remain. Prokaryotic organisms do not splice their genes, the DNA is copied directly to RNA. Since many biotechnological procedures use bacteria (prokaryotes) to test eukaryotic genes, the sequence needs to be 'spliced' before it can be expressed correctly by the bacterium. To do this researchers isolate the RNA (which lacks the introns) and convert it back to DNA, using reverse transcriptase. They then use this cDNA (complementary DNA) to express in the bacterial system. This is effectively recombinant DNA, because it does not occur naturally in the source organism.
What is splicing enzyme?
spliceosomes
In advantage of using reverse transcriptase to prepare a gene for cloning is that?
the resulting DNA strand will lack introns
Why is splicing of optical fibers done?
Splicing of optical fiber cable is done to extend a cable, making it longer, or to repair a break in it. Splicing is preferred over installation of connectors, because the connectors introduce losses and degrade reliability. Some connectors are necessary, but those are placed in a protected environment, and their use is minimized. Besides, a typical cable, with 56 or more strands, would require 56 or more connectors, and that would create a large lump in the cable.
What happens to introns in eukaryotic mRNA during the process of splicing?
During the process of splicing in eukaryotic mRNA, introns are removed. This leaves only the exons, which are the coding regions, to be joined together to form the final mRNA molecule that will be translated into a protein.
What is the process called which removes introns from RNA?
RNA splicing
Are exons or introns removed during 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.
Are introns or exons removed during the process of mRNA 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.
Are exons or introns spliced out during the process of RNA splicing?
During the process of RNA splicing, introns are spliced out, while exons are joined together to form the mature mRNA molecule.
How do introns and exons relate to RNA splicing?
Before the RNA leaves the nucleus, the introns are removed and the exons are joined together, producing an mRNA molecule with a continuous coding sequence. This process is called RNA splicing.
What is the role of introns in gene regulation?
Introns do not play a direct role in gene regulation, but they can affect gene expression by influencing alternative splicing, mRNA processing, and RNA stability. Certain introns contain regulatory elements that can impact the level of gene expression by affecting the efficiency of transcription and translation.
Do mitochondria have introns?
Yes, mitochondria have introns. These introns are non-coding sequences found within the DNA of the mitochondria. They are typically removed during the process of RNA splicing to produce functional mitochondrial mRNA.
What is the primary transcript of eukaryotic genes?
the primary transcript usually has a exons and introns which need to undergo splicing to remove the introns and re-splicing to join the exons ..after this process the resulting mRNA is a mature mRNA.
What is self splicing?
Self-splicing is a process in which certain RNA molecules can remove their own introns without the need for proteins or enzymes. This occurs in some RNA molecules known as ribozymes. Self-splicing can involve a variety of mechanisms, such as transesterification reactions, to excise unwanted regions of the RNA molecule.
Which gets cut out in RNA Splicing extrons or introns?
In RNA splicing, introns are the non-coding sequences that get cut out from the pre-mRNA transcript. The exons, which are the coding sequences, are retained and joined together to form the mature mRNA. This process is essential for generating a functional mRNA that can be translated into a protein.
Does splicing occur naturally?
Yes, it only occurs in eukartoyic mRNA as they only have the non coding region (introns)
