(Biyokimya) A segment of a DNA or RNA molecule containing information coding for a protein or peptide sequence. Compare with intron
sequence of a gene's DNA that transcribes into protein structures; "exons are interspersed with introns
segments of a gene (or of the primary transcript of the gene) that is included in the mature, functional messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and ribosomal RNA after RNA processing
Segment on a gene, which contains a part of the structural plan for a protein, approximately 1% of the DNA
Exon of the Guards Any one of the three certain officers of the day in command of the yeomen of the royal guard; the acting officer who resides at the court; an exempt Capitaines exempts des gardes du corps (French, exoine, ex soin, exempt from duty or care )
An exon is the region of a transcribed gene present in the final functional RNA molecule
sequence of a gene's DNA that transcribes into protein structures; "exons are interspersed with introns"
Part of a gene whose sequence is present in a mature mRNA after splicing See also Intron
block of DNA or RNA nucleotide sequence which codes for RNA or polypeptide (protein) and which is separated from the next exon by a non-coding region (intron)
Protein coding sequences of the primary RNA transcript (or the DNA that encodes them) It exits the nucleus as part of a messenger RNA molecule In the primary transcript neighboring exons are separated by introns Back to Homepage F f
An expressed portion of a gene which will be transcribed and translated into protein
Part of a gene that can encode amino acids in a protein Usually adjacent to a non-coding DNA segment called an intron (Alberts)
A nucleotide sequence (of DNA or RNA) in a gene that codes for part or all of the gene product or for some control function In eukaryotes, exons are separated by non coding sequences called introns
A section of DNA which carries the coding sequence for a protein or part of it Exons are separated by intervening, non- coding sequences (introns) In eukaryotes most genes consist of a number of exons [IUPAC Bioinorganic]
