Abstract excerpt
Little is known about mechanisms that regulate and ensure accurate processing of complex transcription units with long introns. We investigate this in the Ultrabithorax gene of Drosophila. A consensus 5' splice site is regenerated at the junction between the first exon and a small internal exon (mI); this splice site is used in a developmentally regulated manner to remove mI during subsequent processing of the...
