The Biochemistry and Clinical Importance of Ribonucleic Acid (RNA): A Review Article
Journal Title: International Journal of Health & Medical Research - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 07
Abstract
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a compound that is found in almost all the cells of animals, plants, microbial, and viral particles. It is constituted from a polymer of nucleotides that contain a ribose sugar. There are many main types of RNAs, but the major types that take part in protein formation: are transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and messenger RNA (mRNA). The alteration in nucleotide sequence of RNA in viruses may be responsible for development of different diseases in living organisms. There is a huge variation in RNA viruses, such as retrovirus, rhinovirus, coronavirus, which account for many human illnesses. In this review article, we shed light on the evidence-supported information about the biochemical aspects and clinical importance of RNA.
