What is RNA?

RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a polymeric molecule essential in various biological roles in coding, decoding, regulation and expression of genes. RNA is central to protein synthesis, carrying genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, where proteins are assembled. It is also involved in gene regulation and other cellular processes. Common types include messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

What other technologies are related to RNA?

RNA Competitor Technologies

Southern blotting is a technique for detecting specific DNA sequences, serving as an alternative to RNA-based methods like Northern blotting or RT-PCR for gene expression analysis.
