What Are The RNA Molecules In The Formation Of Protein?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    There are three types of RNA molecules which are used for the formation of proteins. These RNA includes mRNA, tRNA and rRNA.

    mRNA is the Messenger RNA that is responsible for carrying information from DNA to Ribosomes. Ribosomes are the sites for the protein synthesis. The coding sequence of mRNA molecules determine the sequence of amino acids in proteins. Transfer RNA or tRNA, are formed of 80 nucleotides. They are responsible for the transfer of amino acid to the growing chain of polypeptide. This also occurs at the ribosomal site of protein synthesis and is known as translation. The third type of RNA is rRNA, which is the Ribosomal RNA. These RNA molecules are combined with protein to form nucleoprotein, in the cytoplasm.
