Messenger RNA in Eukaryotes | Genetics | Embryology

Messenger RNA is the link between the genome and the cell cytoplasm. For this reason alone it is of central importance in the study of gene action. This study has been greatly facilitated by the methods which are now available for the isolation and purification of mRNA's (and other RNA's as well). Purified mRNA is, of course, a prerequisite for [...]

RNA: Structure, Classes and Properties | Nucleic Acid

In this article we will discuss about RNA:- 1. Structure of RNA 2. Major Classes of RNAs 3. Some Special RNAs 4. Properties. Structure of RNA: The primary structure of RNA is similar to that of DNA, except for the substitution of ribose sugar for deoxyribose and base uracil for thymidine. RNA molecules consist of only one chain, so the [...]
