State the difference between the structural' genes in a transcription unit of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Prokaryotic structural genes are found in continuity without any non-coding region, while eukaryotic structural genes are divided into exons (coding DNA) and introns (non-coding DNA). Exons appear in mature RNA. lntrons are spliced out during splicing
