  • Sequence of a eukaryotic gene's DNA that is not translated into a protein
  • An intron is a DNA region within a gene that is not translated into protein. These non-coding sections are transcribed to precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) and some other RNAs (such as long noncoding RNAs), and subsequently removed by a process called splicing during the processing to mature RNA. ...
  • (Introns (album)) Introns is an album by LCD Soundsystem released in March 2006 as a digital download. It is a compilation of b-sides and remixes from the LCD Soundsystem album and associated singles. The cover image shows James Murphy's record collection.
  • (Introns) The DNA base sequences interrupting the protein- coding sequences of a gene; these sequences are transcribed into RNA but are cut out of the message before it is translated into protein. Compare exons.
  • (Introns) DNA sequences without instructions for making protein that come between those sequences with instructions for making protein (exons). Introns are not in messenger RNA, and it is not known what they are for.
  • (Introns) Noncoding regions of eukaryotic genes, which are transcribed into mRNA but are then excised by a process called RNA-splicing. See exon.
  • (Introns) Segments of gene sequence that are removed from full-length RNA transcript ( pre-mRNA) through splicing during mRNA maturation
  • (Introns) and flanking sequences. These regions are relatively free to vary without hurting the final protein product. In other words, these regions of the genome are under much less pressure from natural selection.
  • (Introns) in a gene, regions of DNA situated between exons (DNA coding for protein). Introns can contain repeat sequences, vestigial gene fragments, inverted sequences, etc and some are believed to have a role in regulating transcription. ...
