RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a vital molecule that plays key roles in the expression, regulation, and transmission of genetic information. Found in all living cells, RNA acts as the messenger carrying instructions from DNA for controlling protein synthesis, and it can also have catalytic and regulatory functions on its own. Scientists study RNA to better understand processes like gene expression, cell signaling, and the evolution of life itself. Recent research into RNA has revealed its crucial involvement in everything from developmental biology and immune system function to the mechanisms of viral infections, including the behavior of viruses like influenza and SARS-CoV-2.
