L'épissage protéique se définit comme un évènement post-traductionnel qui conduit à la maturation d'une protéine précurseur, inactive en plusieurs protéines fonctionnelles. Durant cette maturation un ou plusieurs polypeptides (intéines) sont excisés du précurseur et les régions flanquantes (extéines) sont reléguées par une liaison peptidique.
