Ontology: Biological Process (GO:0000398)
Definition: The joining together of exons from one or more primary transcripts of messenger RNA (mRNA) and the excision of intron sequences, via a spliceosomal mechanism, so that mRNA consisting only of the joined exons is produced.
Synonyms: mRNA splicing; pre-mRNA splicing; splicing GT-AG intron; splicing AT-AC intron; nuclear mRNA splicing via U12-type spliceosome; nuclear mRNA splicing via U2-type spliceosome; nuclear mRNA splicing, via spliceosome
