Twintron

Index Twintron

In molecular biology, Twintrons are introns-within-introns excised by sequential splicing reactions. [1]

7 relations: Chloroplast, Drosophila, Euglena gracilis, Group II intron, Group III intron, Intron, RNA splicing.

Chloroplast

Chloroplasts are organelles, specialized compartments, in plant and algal cells.

Drosophila

Drosophila is a genus of flies, belonging to the family Drosophilidae, whose members are often called "small fruit flies" or (less frequently) pomace flies, vinegar flies, or wine flies, a reference to the characteristic of many species to linger around overripe or rotting fruit.

Euglena gracilis

Euglena gracilis is a species of single-celled Eukaryote algae in the genus Euglena.

Group II intron

Group II introns are a large class of self-catalytic ribozymes and mobile genetic elements found within the genes of all three domains of life.

Group III intron

Group III intron is a class of introns found in mRNA genes of chloroplasts in euglenid protists.

Intron

An intron is any nucleotide sequence within a gene that is removed by RNA splicing during maturation of the final RNA product.

New!!: Twintron and Intron · See more »

RNA splicing

In molecular biology, splicing is the editing of the nascent precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) transcript into a mature messenger RNA (mRNA).
