Question
Chapter 11, Problem 16RQ
Summary Introduction
The animal genome contains both exons (coding regions) and introns (non-coding regions). If the cloned gene possesses introns, it will affect the production of a correct protein molecule in a host. Hence, before cloning the DNA sequence must be modified (DNA sequence must contain only exons).
