Nucleic acid splicing events occur frequently during macronuclear development in the protozoan Oxytricha nova and involve the elimination of unique DNA

During its life cycle, the hypotrichous ciliated protozoan Oxytricha nova transforms a copy of its chromosomal micronucleus into a transcriptionally active macronucleus which contains exclusively linear, gene-sized DNA molecules with an average size of about 2.2 kilobase pairs (kbp). The micronuclea...
