Post by: yexiu on Jan 4, 2022 A researcher measures the quantity of cDNA that corresponds to the exons of a particular gene in mice using RNA-seq. They find that RNA for this gene isolated from the brain contains 4 exons, while RNA from the liver heart and skin contains 5 exons. What phenomenon likely explains this result?
▸ cells of the brain splice this mRNA differently than other cells in the mouse ▸ the mRNA in the brain is a pseudogene ▸ the brain cell chromosome lacks the exon that is present in the other cells of the mouse ▸ the skin, liver and heart cells differentiate before the brain and so have different exons ▸ there is a brain-specific allele compared to the other cells in the mouse Title: A researcher measures the quantity of cDNA that corresponds to the exons of a particular gene in ...
