They do this by alternative splicing (AS). Alternative splicing means, that during the RNA splicing event different combinations of exons can be joined together to create a diverse array of mRNAs from a single pre-mRNA. When these are translated they produce different proteins which do different things.
The pre-messenger RNA thus formed contains introns which are not required for protein synthesis. The pre-messenger RNA is chopped up to remove the introns and create messenger RNA (mRNA) in a process called RNA splicing (Figure 5).
