Detailed Solution

Tail of functional mRNA is made up of poly adenylates sequences.

The primary transcripts contain both the exons and the introns and are non-functional. Hence, it is subjected to a process called splicing where the introns are removed and exons are joined in a defined order. hnRNA undergoes additional processing called capping and tailing.

 In the tailing, adenylate residues (200-300) are added at the 3'-end in a template independent manner. It is fully processed hnRNA, now called mRNA, that is transported out of the nucleus for translation.
