Newly Made RNA (IMAGE) Aarhus University Caption Newly made RNA consists of functional parts (exons) and non-functional parts (introns). Introns are excised in a process called splicing to yield a mature and functional RNA molecule composes entirely of exons. The RNA modification m6A can increase or inhibit this maturation process dependent of where m6A is deposited on newly made RNA Credit Ulf Andersson Vang Ørom Usage Restrictions Image may be used only to illustrate the research described in the accompanying release.
