Descriptor empalme de proteínas
Entry term(s) ayuste y empalme de proteínas
Scope note: Eliminación de secuencias proteicas internas (INTEÍNAS) de una proteína precursora, acopladas con la conexión de secuencias laterales (EXTEÍNAS). El empalme de proteínas es una reacción autocatalítica y da lugar a la producción de dos proteínas a partir de un solo producto de traducción primario: la inteína y la proteína madura.

Scope note: The excision of in-frame internal protein sequences (INTEINS) of a precursor protein, coupled with ligation of the flanking sequences (EXTEINS). Protein splicing is an autocatalytic reaction and results in the production of two proteins from a single primary translation product: the intein and the mature protein.
