Q. What role does messenger RNA play in the synthesis of proteins ?

Molecular Basis of Inheritance

Solution:

The process of protein synthesis is catalyzed by ribosomal RNA. Messenger RNA provides the genetic blueprint for the protein. Transfer RNA is responsible for translating the triplet code into a specific amino acid. Messenger RNA molecules are modified prior to protein synthesis by small nuclear RNA.
