The 3’- OH end of the branch point A makes the attack in splicing of an intron. Correct Answer False
The 2’-OH of A base is seen to make this attack on the 5’ end of the intron at the phosphodiester bond while the original 3’-OH end of the A is still in the bonding with the phosphate. This makes a lariat structure.
