Animal, Fungi, and Plant Genome Sequences Harbor Different Non-Canonical Splice Sites

Most protein-encoding genes in eukaryotes contain introns, which are interwoven with exons. Introns need to be removed from initial transcripts in order to generate the final messenger RNA (mRNA), which can be translated into an amino acid sequence. Precise excision of introns by the spliceosome req...
