mRNA Processing: Advanced Look

The process by which mRNA is processed can be divided into several stages. In order to accommodate the larger number of stills contained in Advanced Look, the selected images have been grouped into pages that correspond with these areas.

To see the Flash movie for the following sequences of images, click here.

The first step in processing mRNA is called capping. More detail...
The second major step in processing pre-mRNA involves cutting the strand. More detail...
The final main alteration made to the pre-mRNA is polyadenylation. More detail...
