Alternative splicing is the RNA splicing variation mechanism in which the
exons of the primary gene transcript, the
pre-mRNA, are separated and reconnected so as to produce alternative
ribonucleotide arrangements. These linear combinations then undergo the process of
translation where specific and unique sequences of
amino acids are specified, resulting in isoform proteins. In this way, alternative splicing uses genetic expression to facilitate the synthesis of a greater variety of proteins.
