    Heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA) is converted to wRNA by

    A)  splicing               

    B)  capping

    C)  tailing .                

    D)  All of the above

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     The heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hn RNA) is the precursuor of mRNA, It undergoes splicing, capping and tailing during the process. In E splicing, the introns are removed and exons are joined in a defined order hn RNA undergoes someone processing called as capping and tailing. In capping an unusual nucleotide (methyl guanosine triphosphate) is added to the 5-end of hn RNA. In tailing, adenylate residues (200-300) are added at 3-end in a template independent manner. It is the fully processed hn RNA, now called mRNA. It is transported out of the nucleous for translation.
