An overview of RNA splicing and functioning of splicing factors in land plant chloroplasts
RNA splicing refers to a process by which introns of a pre-mRNA are excised and the exons at both ends are joined together. Chloroplast introns are inherently self-splicing ribozymes, but over time, they have lost self-splicing ability due to the degeneration of intronic elements. Thus, the splicing...
