How does alternative rna splicing affect gene expression?

Biology
1 answer:
Elis [28]3 years ago
6 0
RNA splicing was first discovered in 1970s in viruses and subsequently in eukaryotes.  Not long after, scientists discovered alternative patterns of pre-mRNA splicing that produced different mature mRNAs containing various combinations of exons from a single precursor mRNA. The first example of alternative splicing of a cellular gene in eukaryotes was identified in the IgM gene, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Alternative splicing (AS) therefore is a process by which exons or portions of exons or noncoding regions within a pre-mRNA transcript are differentially joined or skipped, resulting in multiple protein isoforms being encoded by a single gene. This mechanism increases the informational diversity and functional capacity of a gene during post-transcriptional processing and provides an opportunity for gene regulation

Energy from the sun comes from fusion. what happens during this reaction
OverLord2011 [107]

Hydrogen atoms are compressed together by the enormous gravitational force of the sun, causing them to fuse int a helium atom (which is heavier than hydrogen), subatomic particles and enormous release of atomic energy. The attached picture shows the sequence of the main reaction at the core of the sun.

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,
Gnesinka [82]
<span> Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's). 

Hope this helps please award brainly :)
