We can think of no plausible mechanism that would explain the mutant specificity for such recombination, and we consider an explanation of splicing based on mRNA to be a remote possibility. Much more likely, we feel, is that splicing occurs at the level of polypeptide synthesis or between completed polypeptide chains.
