The rRNA molecules fold into complex secondary and tertiary structures, forming domains and motifs that are essential for ribosome function. The rRNA structures also provide binding sites for ...

rRNA molecules are the target of chemical modifications, affecting the ribosome's function. "95% of human RNA is ribosomal RNA. They are very prevalent in our cells," adds Dr. Novoa. The ...

In fact, this flow of information from DNA to RNA and finally to protein is considered the central dogma of genetics, and it is the starting point for understanding the function of the genetic ...
