Understanding the Splicing Process in Botany: Mechanism and Types
Splicing is a crucial process in genetics where non-coding regions (introns) are removed from messenger RNA to generate mature RNA for protein synthesis. This process involves joining coding regions (exons) to produce functional mRNA templates. The mechanism, types, and importance of splicing, including alternative splicing for diverse protein functions, are explored in detail.

WHAT IS SPLICING? The process by which introns( the non-coding regions of genes) are excised out of the primary messenger RNA transcript, and the exons (coding regions) are joined together to generate mature messenger RNA. The latter serves as the template for synthesis of a specific protein.
Mechanism of splicing Exercised intron has 3 -OH P between 2 exons in spliced product comes from 3 - splice site. Intermediate and spliced intron contain branched nucleotide. Branch involves 5 end of intron(G) binding to A within intron.
Alternative splicing It It is is a a process process that different different protein functions functions or or properties exon exon elements elements that sequence sequence that enables enables a a messenger protein variants variants ( (isoforms properties. .

cissplicing: It is an intra molecular mechanism in which intervening sequences in eukaryotic pre mRNAs are removed. Trans Trans- -splicing splicing: : T Trans-splicing multiple separate pre-mRNAs. This phenomenon can be exploited for molecular therapy to address mutated gene products. splicing generates a single RNA transcript from
