Evolution of Exon Structure | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the evolution of exon structure. Average cellular gene is vertebrates con­tains about eight exons and detail analysis of human gene has yielded a classification scheme for exons according to their transcrip­tional or translational boundaries. According to this scheme there are 12 different cate­gories which are: (i) 5' terminal un-translated exons. (ii) 3' terminal [...]
