Question

Why is RNA required to undergo splicing?

Answer 1

Ribonucleic acid is a polymeric molecule essential in various biological roles in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes. RNA and DNA are nucleic acids, and, along with lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, constitute the four major macromolecules essential for all known forms of life. During the process of translation, the RNA undergoes splicing mechanism because it has intron and exons but introns have to be removed before the further translation takes place.
