Question:
You obtain the sequence of a gene containing 10 exons, 9 introns, Jnd a 3' UTR containing a polyadenylation consensus sequence. The fifth intron also contains a polyadenylation site. To test whether both polyadenylation sites are used, you isolate mRNA and find a longer transcript from muscle tissue and a shorter transcript from all other tissues. Speculate about the mechanism involved in the production of these different transcripts.
