<prompt> Splicing is a process of ?Activation of proteinRemoval of intronsSynthesis of proteinReplication of DNA  <response>: In molecular biology and genetics, splicing is a modification of an RNA after transcription, in which introns are removed and exons are joined.This is needed for the typical eukaryotic messenger RNA before it can be used to produce a correct protein through translation.For many eukaryotic introns, splicing is done in a series of reactions which are catalyzed by the spliceosome a complex of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins snRNAs, but there are also self-splicing introns.
