How can alternative rna splicing result in different proteins?

Biology
1 answer:
andrew-mc [135]3 years ago

Alternative splicing is the process of gene expression. It results in a single gene being able to produce multiple functional proteins. mRNA splicing includes certain exons and excludes others. This produces different mRNA strands with different base sequences, which then translates to different polypeptide chains with different codon sequences. Different polypeptide chains will then go through processing to become different proteins.

Hope this helps! :)

zaharov [31]

Answer:

How do your cells know what to do? Just like builders have blueprints to tell them how to build a house, your cells also have instructions. Your cells' instructions are molecules of DNA.

What is DNA?

DNA is the material that makes up our chromosomes and stores our genetic information. When you build a house, you need a blueprint, a set of instructions that tells you how to build. The DNA is like the blueprint for living organisms. The genetic information is a set of instructions that tell your cells what to do.

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid. As you may recall, nucleic acids are a type of macromolecule that store information. The deoxyribo part of the name refers to the name of the sugar that is contained in DNA, deoxyribose. DNA may provide the instructions to make up all living things, but it is actually a very simple molecule. DNA is made of a very long chain of nucleotides. In fact, in you, the smallest DNA molecule has well over 20 million nucleotides.
