Question

Question 26 Alternative splicing of an eukaryotic gene can occur if: If there is more than one consensus sequence where the spliceosome can cut There are multiple transcription factors affecting intron splicing There is at least one intron There are more than two spliceosomes available

Answer 1

ALTERNATIVE SPLICING -this is the method which were first discovered in viruses and then in eukaryotic cells .alternative splicing is a mechanism which help the gene to increase its capacity (gene is the hereditary unit which transfer information from generation to generation).alternative splicing(AS) helped in gene regulation and it generate mRNAs encoding protein with different funtions .AS is that process in eukaryotic organism by which multiple distinct functional transcript are produced from single gene.                                                                                                 there are multiple transcription factor that affect intron splicing
