Question

Sapling Learning macmillan learning Eukaryotic messenger RNA can undergo post synthetic processing after transcription and before translation One of the processing steps is splicing, where portions of the RNA are removed and the remaining RNA joined together. Sort the following statements regarding mRNA splicing as true or false. True statements False statements Small RNA's in the splicesome recognize the 5' and 3' splice site sequences. In splicing, exon sequences are removed from the mRNA in the form of lariats, and are degraded. Splicing occurs while the mRNA is attached to the nucleosome One mRNA can sometimes code for more than one protein by splicing at alternative sites. Splicing occurs while the mRNA is still in the nucleus

Explanation / Answer

True statements

One mrna can sometimes code for more than one protein by splicing at alternate sites

splicing occurs while mRNA is still in nucleus

False statements

In splicing, exon sequences are removed from the mRNA in the form of lariats and are degraded.

splicing occcurs while the mRNA is attached to the nicleosome.

small RNA s in the splicesome recognize the 5' and3' splice site sequence
