The following eukaryotic DNA sequence is a made up gene. It contains a promoter (green), a coding sequence (yellow to grey), a terminator (grey). Within the coding sequence there are 3 exons (uppercase black) and 2 intron (lower case black).

Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
Find the sequence of the mature RNA that would be formed following the next instructions:
1. Add a Guanin before the first
2. Splice the RNA sequence 4 nucleotides upstream of the consensus splicing sequence (AAUAAA in blue). Remove all nucleotides downstream of the splicing site and then add 5 Adenines right after the splicing site. This will be the poly A tail.
3. Remove the corresponding intron and bind both exons.
