Respuesta :

The mechanisms which can cause two different proteins to be produced from the same gene is b)mRNA splicing. So, correct option is b.

mRNA splicing is defined as a process in molecular biology where a newly-made precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) works as a transcript and transformed into a mature messenger RNA (mRNA). It actually works by removing all of the introns (non-coding regions of RNA) and splicing back together the exons (coding regions).

For nuclear-encoded genes, splicing occurs in the nucleus either during or immediately after transcription. For eukaryotic genes that contain introns in them , splicing is usually needed to create an mRNA molecule that can be translated into protein.

For eukaryotic introns, splicing occurs as the series of reactions which are catalyzed by the spliceosome, a complex reaction of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs).

Hence, correct option b.
