Answer:

RNA or ribonucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides that is made up of a ribose sugar, a phosphate, and bases such as adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil. It plays a crucial role in gene expression by acting as the intermediate between the genetic information encoded by DNA and proteins.

RNA has a structure very similar to that of DNA. The key difference in RNA structure is that the ribose sugar in RNA possesses a hydroxyl (-OH) group that is absent in DNA.

Types of RNA

  • In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, there are three main types of RNA – messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA). These 3 types of RNA are discussed below.

Messenger RNA (mRNA)

  • mRNA accounts for just 5% of the total RNA in the cell. mRNA is the most heterogeneous of the 3 types of RNA in terms of both base sequence and size. It carries complimentary genetic code copied, from DNA during transcription, in the form of triplets of nucleotides called codons.

  • Each codon specifies a particular amino acid, though one amino acid may be coded for by many different codons. Although there are 64 possible codons or triplet bases in the genetic code, only 20 of them represent amino acids. There are also 3 stop codons, which indicate that ribosomes should cease protein generation by translation.

  • As part of post-transcriptional processing in eukaryotes, the 5’ end of mRNA is capped with a guanosine triphosphate nucleotide, which helps in mRNA recognition during translation or protein synthesis. Similarly, the 3’ end of an mRNA has a poly-A tail or multiple adenylate residues added to it, which prevents enzymatic degradation of mRNA. Both the 5’ and 3’ end of an mRNA imparts stability to the mRNA.

Answer:

Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules carry the coding sequences for protein synthesis and are called transcripts; ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules form the core of a cell's ribosomes (the structures in which protein synthesis takes place); and transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carry amino acids to the ribosomes during protein.

The triplet codons present on it are UAA , UGA , UAG which acts as stop or terminating codons.
