Splicing concensus sequence is ___________(a) Exon/GU–intron–AG/exon(b) Exon/UG–intron–AT/exon(c) Exon/GU–intron–GA/exon(d) Exon/AU–intron–CG/exonI have been asked this question in an interview.The question is from Post-Transcriptional Modification in division Gene Expression : Transcription Prokaryotes of Cytogenetics

Answer»

Right choice is (a) Exon/GU–intron–AG/exon

For explanation I WOULD say: It has been seen that splicing occurs at this consensus SEQUENCE. However, as there COULD be many more MOTIEF similar to this within the intron there are ADDITIONAL consensus sequences.
