Design and rationalise experiments you would conduct to demonstrate the occurrence of alternative mRNA splicing from a specific eukaryotic gene.
More than one different mRNA transcripts can arise from a single gene. (i) Using specific examples discuss how this mechanism of regulating gene expression might offer advantages over gene regulation using only transcription-dependent mechanisms. (ii) Design and rationalise experiments you would conduct to demonstrate the occurrence of alternative mRNA splicing from a specific eukaryotic gene.
