Question

What is the function of a spliceosome?

Answer 1

Explanation:

A spliceosome is a large and complex molecular machine found primarily within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. The spliceosome is assembled from small nuclear RNAs and approximately 80 proteins. The spliceosome removes introns from a transcribed pre-mRNA, a type of primary transcript.

Answer 2

the function of a spliceosome is the removal of introns from transcribed hnRNA segment.

1. splicesome is a special and complex form of RNA and protein sub unit.
2. these are large RNA (ribo nucleo protein) which are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cell.
3. the process of removing introns from a transcribed RNA is called splicing.
4. pre mRNA splicing is catalysed by the presence of spliceosome.
5. a single spliceosome consist of five small five nucleur RNA (snRNA) and a series of protein associated.
6. these when combine with protein complexes form snRNPs (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins.
