Summary Introduction

To determine:

The difference between the regulatory RNAs and messenger RNA.

Introduction:

RNA is a genetic material which carries information for the translation of genes. It is the important part of protein synthesis. There are mainly three types of RNA including m RNA, t RNA, r RNA. Some non coding RNAs are also found in cells such as small regulatory RNAs. Regulatory RNAs include Sn RNA, mi RNA and si RNA. The regulatory RNAs play a crucial role in gene regulation. The mRNA is the only RNA in which the genetic instruction for transcription of gene is coded.
