what direction is rna read?
430904
During transcription, the RNA polymerase read the template DNA strand in the 3′→5′ direction, but the mRNA is formed in the 5′ to 3′ direction. The mRNA is single-stranded and therefore only contains three possible reading frames, of which only one is translated.

All mRNAs are read in the 5´ to 3´ direction, and polypeptide chains are synthesized from the amino to the carboxy terminus. Each amino acid is specified by three bases (a codon) in the mRNA, according to a nearly universal genetic code.

['Messenger RNA is single-stranded RNA.', 'The mRNA carries genetic information from DNA to ribosome present in the cytosol, where it is used as a template for protein synthesis.', 'Messenger RNA is furnished with genetic code (message) as the sequence of codons.', "The message of mRNA is read consecutively in 5' to 3' direction."]

Although the functions of each type of RNA are different, one type of RNA is called messenger RNA, or simply mRNA. ... mRNA is translated into protein at a cellular structure known as the ribosome. A second type of RNA helps form the structure of a ribosome. This type of RNA is called ribosomal RNA, or rRNA.

RNA molecules are transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in eukaryotes through: sodium/potassium channels.

Early Discoveries of RNA Structure Today, researchers know that cells contain a variety of forms of RNA—including messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA)—and each form is involved in different functions and activities. ... However, unlike DNA, RNA is usually a single-stranded molecule.

Three major types of RNA are mRNA, or messenger RNA, that serve as temporary copies of the information found in DNA; rRNA, or ribosomal RNA, that serve as structural components of protein-making structures known as ribosomes; and finally, tRNA, or transfer RNA, that ferry amino acids to the ribosome to be assembled ...

In molecular genetics, an untranslated region (or UTR) refers to either of two sections, one on each side of a coding sequence on a strand of mRNA. If it is found on the 5' side, it is called the 5' UTR (or leader sequence), or if it is found on the 3' side, it is called the 3' UTR (or trailer sequence).

siRNA are generally considered to have come from longer strands of exogenous growing or originating from outside an organism (RNA which is taken up by the cell and undergoes further processing). The RNA often comes from vectors, such as viruses or transposons (a gene that can change positions within a genome).

The tRNA molecule has a distinctive folded structure with three hairpin loops that form the shape of a three-leafed clover. One of these hairpin loops contains a sequence called the anticodon, which can recognize and decode an mRNA codon. Each tRNA has its corresponding amino acid attached to its end.

RNA sense in viruses The genome of an RNA virus can be said to be either positive-sense, also known as a "plus-strand", or negative-sense, also known as a "minus-strand".

The three main types of RNA directly involved in protein synthesis are messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA).

The mRNA formed in transcription is transported out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm, to the ribosome (the cell's protein synthesis factory). Here, it directs protein synthesis. ... Each three-base stretch of mRNA (triplet) is known as a codon, and one codon contains the information for a specific amino acid.

Unlike double-stranded DNA, RNA is a single-stranded molecule in many of its biological roles and consists of much shorter chains of nucleotides. However, a single RNA molecule can, by complementary base pairing, form intrastrand double helixes, as in tRNA.

- Messenger RNA (mRNA) - Long strands of RNA nucleotides that are formed complementary to one strand of DNA. They travel from the nucleus to the ribosome to direct the synthesis of a specific protein. - Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) - Associates with proteins to form ribosomes in the cytoplasm.

The sense strand has the information that would be readable on the RNA, and that's called the coding side. The antisense is the non-coding strand, but ironically, when you're making RNA, the proteins that are involved in making RNA read the antisense strand in order to create a sense strand for the mRNA.

The mRNA interacts with a specialized complex called a ribosome, which "reads" the sequence of mRNA bases. Each sequence of three bases, called a codon, usually codes for one particular amino acid. (Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.)
