CENTRAL DOGMA :: PART 2

TYPES OF RNA

-          mRNA: - (messenger RNA) This is an intermediate formed between DNA and    
                 protein. mRNA is made from DNA and proteins are made from mRNA.
                     

-          tRNA: - (transfer RNA) this RNA helps in the formation of a protein from amino
                acids. This gathers amino acid and joins them making a polypeptide.


                                             
-          rRNA: - (ribosomal RNA) it is the main constituent of ribosomes. This along with
                 the two other RNA make a polypeptide.
