| exon |
A segment of a eukaryotic gene that is transcribed as part of the primary transcript and is retained, after processing, with other exons to form a functional mRNA molecule. See DNA; intron; split gene; splicing.

| exonuclease |
An enzyme that digests DNA or RNA, beginning at the ends of strands. It requires a free end in order to degrade a DNA or RNA molecule. 5?exonucleases require a free 5?end and degrade the molecule in the 5´®3?direction. 3?exonucleases require a free 3?end and degrade the molecule in the opposite direction. cf endonuclease.

| exon |
The protein coding sequence of a eukaryotic gene. Exons are separated from introns by splice junction sequences.
