Explain the function of spliceosomes in eukaryotic cells. The following sequence represents pre-mRNA derived from a gene coding for alpha keratin in birds. Label the sequence to show potential exon(s), intron(s) and spliceosome cut site(s). That is, put the intron(s) sequences in parentheses and use black slash symbols (/) to indicate the spliceosome cut site(s). What is the sequence of the mature mRNA after splicing?
