Figure 1: Pre-mRNA splicing. Splicing of a pre-mRNA molecule occurs in several steps that are catalyzed by small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs). After the U1 snRNP binds to the 5â² splice site, the 5â² end of the intron base pairs with the downstream branch sequence, forming a lariat.igure 1: Pre-mRNA splicing.

Sodium in Biscuits. The favorite choice for the term Biscuits is 1 2-1/2 Plain or Buttermilk Biscuit which has about 350 mg of sodium. The amount of salt (sodium) for a variety of types and serving sizes of Biscuits is shown below.
= 700 mg sodium Salsa- 1 Tbsp. = 43 mg sodium Vinegar- 1 Tbsp. = 0 mg sodium Salsa- 1/2 Cup = 344 mg sodium Catsup- 1 Tbsp. = 156 mg sodium The bottom line is to read all labels and when in doubt check with a dietitian or contact the manufacturer for sodium content. HOW MUCH SODIUM DO FOODS CONTAIN? Most of the sodium in our diet (approx. 75%) comes from processed foods. A preference for salty foods is acquired through frequent exposure and not an inborn taste preference. Sodium was used to preserve foods and the use for flavor was secondary.
