Mechanism Protein isoform
different mechanisms of rna splicing.
alternative splicing post-transcriptional modification process major molecular mechanism contributes protein diversity.
it found spliceosome, large ribonucleoprotein, place rna cleavage , ligation proceeds removal of non protein coding segments or introns. requires 5 subunits, u1,u2, u4/u6 , u5, form active spliceosome.
there 3 main components of common alternative splicing mechanism:
cis-acting regulatory sequences
rna-binding protein splicing factors
rna-rna base pairing
in short, during transcription process, mrna may include (enhance) or exclude (silent) 1 or multiple exons of gene.
