What does alternative splicing accomplish?
A.Multiple proteins from one gene
B.Faster DNA replication
C.Destruction of all mRNA
D.Chromosome condensation
Explanation
Core Concept
Different exon combinations from a single transcript produce different mRNA and protein isoforms — a major source of proteome diversity without extra genes.
