Abstract
About 25% of the double-stranded sequences isolated from pre-mRNA are able to hybridize, after melting, with either mRNA or non-melted pre-mRNA. The retention of one branch of pre-mRNA hairpin in mRNA was suggested. It was also found that in addition to the hairpin-like structures comprising about 3% of the total sequences another 15% of the pre-mRNA sequences can form double-stranded structures upon annealing over a broad interval of Cot values.
