Summary Introduction

To review:

The role of snRNPs (small nuclear ribonuclear proteins) in mRNA splicing.

Introduction:

The central dogma states that DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is converted into RNA (ribonucleic acid) via a process called transcription. Through translation, protein synthesis occurs, wherein the mRNA is translated. Before entering the process of translation, post-transcriptional modifications occur.
