How does the structural organization of mRNA in eukaryotes differ from that in prokaryotes?
Eukaryotic mRNA is processed post-transcriptionally to remove introns, while prokaryotic mRNA typically lacks introns.
Prokaryotic mRNA undergoes extensive splicing to remove introns, whereas eukaryotic mRNA is transcribed without introns.
Prokaryotic mRNA always contains a 5' cap and poly-A tail, features absent in eukaryotic mRNA.
Eukaryotic mRNA is directly involved in translation without modification, unlike prokaryotic mRNA.
