External Transcribed Spacer Processing

External Transcribed Spacer Processing is a molecular biological process involving the enzymatic cleavage and removal of external transcribed spacer sequences from precursor ribosomal RNA transcripts during the maturation of ribosomal RNA, distinguishing it from internal spacer processing by targeting non-coding regions located outside the mature rRNA sequence boundaries.
