Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) forms the ribosome, which translates mRNA into proteins. It can be found in free-floating ribosomes or in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. rRNA is made up of a large and small subunit that work together to attract transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carrying amino acids. The peptidyl transferase, which joins amino acids, is a […]
Ribosomal RNA sequencing determines the sequence content of ribosomes, which build proteins in cells. The process involves duplicating and identifying small fragments of RNA. This data can aid in bacterial identification and drug design by targeting unique subsequences in bacterial ribosomal RNA. Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing is the process of determining the sequence content […]
