Emergence and loss of spliceosomal twin introns

Emergence and loss of spliceosomal twin introns

Abstract Background In the primary transcript of nuclear genes, coding sequences—exons—usually alternate with non-coding sequences—introns. In the evolution of spliceosomal intron–exon structure, extant intron positions can be abandoned and new intron positions can be occupied. Spliceosomal twin int...
