Question

What is RNA splicing?

Answer 1

RNA splicing, in molecular biology, is a form of RNA processing in which a newly made precursor messenger RNA transcript is transformed into a mature messenger RNA. During splicing, introns are removed and exons are joined together.

Answer 2

RNA Splicing occurs in immature RNA of eukaryotes. Newly made RNA or Immature RNA contains both exons (functional) and introns (non functional) . Hence, it is subjected to a process called Splicing where the introns are removed and exons are joined in a defined order.
