Question
2. RNA is almost never found in its primary structure and will form secondary structures based
on the cellular environment in which it is found. i) Describe why RNA preferentially forms
secondary structures and also discuss the major chemical interactions that are facilitating that
structure. ii) Below is a structure of an RNA that is folded. This RNA structure can be easily
interrupted by addition of Mg2+ to the system. Describe why the secondary RNA structure
would change as a result of the addition of this ion.
