| RNA splicing pattern | <molecular biology> The combination of DNA sequences copied from a gene by messenger RNA. The mRNAs transcribed from a single gene may splice together different parts of the sequence of the gene. (23 Aug 1998) |
|---|---|
| protein splicing | Excision of in-frame internal protein sequences (inteins) of a precursor protein, coupled with ligation of the flanking sequences (exteins). Protein splicing is an autocatalytic reaction and results in the production of two proteins from a single primary translation product: the intein and the mature protein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| self splicing | <molecular biology> Self catalysed removal of group 5 introns, mediated by six paired conserved regions. (18 Nov 1997) |
| splicing | <molecular biology> The process by which introns are removed from hnRNA to produce mature messenger RNA that contains only exons. Alternative splicing seems to occur in many proteins and by alternative exon usage a set of related proteins can be generated from one gene, often in a tissue or developmental stage specific manner. (18 Nov 1997) |
| splicing endonuclease | <enzyme> Cleaves intervening sequences of precursors trna, which are then joined by an RNA ligase Registry number: EC 3.1.27.- Synonym: pre-trna splicing endonuclease, trna splicing endonuclease, splicing endonuclease (xenopus), 3'-pre-trna endonuclease, trna-splicing endonuclease (26 Jun 1999) |
| intron splicing | The excision of mRNA fragments, which correspond to non-coding DNA introns, and the ligation of the remaining mRNA fragments to form a single molecule. (14 Nov 1997) |
| trans splicing | <molecular biology> Relating to RNA splicing of two different pre mRNA molecules together. Seems to rely on intron like sequences. Contrasts with the normal cis splicing of conventional RNA molecules. (19 Jan 1998) |
| trans-splicing | Formation of spliced products containing portions of two different transcripts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tRNA splicing ligase | <enzyme> One of two enzymes involved in trna splicing in archaea Registry number: EC 6.5.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
