| Definitions |
Concept: Introns CUI: C0021920 Semantic Type: Nucleic Acid, Nucleoside, or Nucleotide Biologically Active Substance Definition: Sequences of DNA in the genes that are located between the EXONS. They are transcribed along with the exons but are removed from the primary gene transcript by RNA SPLICING to leave mature RNA. Some introns code for separate genes. (MeSH) noncoding intervening sequence in a gene; separates the coding sequences. (CRISP Thesaurus) Non-coding, intervening sequences of DNA that are transcribed, but are removed from within the primary gene transcript and rapidly degraded during maturation of messenger RNA. Most genes in the nuclei of eukaryotes contain introns, as do mitochondrial and chloroplast genes. (NCI Thesaurus) |
