Question: Describe the structural features that differentiate RNA from DNA.
Question: RNA may fold back onto itself to form regions of double-stranded RNA.
a. Describe at least two structures found in double-stranded regions of RNA.
b. What features of RNA contribute to the stability of these double-stranded RNA regions?
Question: Describe the role of proteins in the stabilization of RNA tertiary structure.
Question: What are the major functions of mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA? Explain the specific feature(s) of each structure that allows the mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA to play their major roles in cellular function.
Question: Other than the functions of mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA described in Question 4, describe two additional functions of RNA in cells.
