Introns are non-coding intervals that interrupt the codingsequences of eukaryotic genes. Intron removal is performedby a complicated molecular machinery, called thespliceosome, concomitantly with gene transcription. Intronsand the splicing machinery (or at least their traces) arefound in every sequenced eukaryotic genome. Moreover, manyintrons are found at homologous positions across differentking ...
