| mRNA |
messenger RNA - the end product of transcription of a gene. Both introns and exons are initially transcribed to form a pre-RNA, which undergoes splicing by nuclear enzymes to remove the introns and create mRNA, which is then used as a template for protein production on the ribosomes of the cell. Also see gene expression.

| mRNA |
A type of RNA that is generated from the transcription of a gene, or template DNA. Mature mRNA has intron sequences spliced out and serves as the intermediate template from which proteins are made.
