A novel role for minimal introns: routing mRNAs to the cytosol.
<h4>Background</h4>Introns and their splicing are tightly coupled with the subsequent mRNA maturation steps, especially nucleocytoplasmic export. A remarkable fraction of vertebrate introns have a minimal size of about 100 bp, while majority of introns expand to several kilobases even me...
