The first (primary) transcript from a protein coding gene is often called a pre-mRNA and contains both introns and exons. Pre-mRNA requires splicing (removal) of introns to produce the final mRNA molecule containing only exons

The premature mRNA is the transcribed product of the gene that codes specific protein but it still has some small sequences of nucleotides called introns. If those introns aren't removed the result will be shown on the translated gene. Even though a peptide may be produced it will not be the one coded by the gene. So premature mRNA goes through a process called RNA splicing in which snRNA combined with proteins removed the introns and put together the rest of the DNA sequences (exons) then the now mature RNA can exit the nucleus and travel in the ribosomes where it will be translated.

pre-mrna has introns and exon as for mrna it removes the introns but remain exons

What mutation stops translation of the mRNA?

The type of mutation that stops the translation of a protein is a nonsense mutation. This occurs when a base substitution (point mutation) results in a STOP codon and thus stops translation of the sequence into a protein.


What is RNA processing?

1.the RNA processing transcribed from a eukaryotic gene is precessed before leaving the nucleus to serve as messenger RNA (rRNA). intro are spliced out, and a cap and tail are added. 1.the RNA processing transcribed from a eukaryotic gene is precessed before leaving the nucleus to serve as messenger RNA (rRNA). intro are spliced out, and a cap and tail are added.


Why are exons important?

Exons code for proteins. Exons are parts of DNA that are converted into mature messenger RNA.. From there, mRNA undergoes translation where mRNA is used to synthesize proteins.


What step in synthesis is transcription?

The excising of the introns from the mRNA and the adding of the poly A tail and guanine repeats to the mature mRNA so that it now exits the nucleus to begin translation.

Why are many types of RNA found in some cells with only one DNA?

There are different types of RNA that have different functions. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) makes ribosomes, the site of protein synthesis; messenger RNA (mRNA) transcribes the DNA code into a strand of mRNA and will attach to a ribosome where transfer RNA (tRNA) translates the mRNA code by bringing amino acids to their appropriate place based on the mRNA code.
