4.1 Single genes can produce multiple<br />
products by alternative splicing<br />
Many genes in higher eukaryotes encode<br />
RNAs that can be <strong>splice</strong>d in alternative<br />
ways to generate two or more different<br />
mRNAs and, thus, different protein<br />
products.The basic answer is that some<br />
<strong>splice</strong> <strong>site</strong>s are used only some of the<br />
time,leading to the production of different<br />
versions of the RNA from different<br />
transcripts of the same gene.
