Now i'm getting RNA fragments - what's the point? Dr K. R. Hill ID: 39195 · Rating: 2 · rate: / Reply Quote

Bottom line is that the team in the Baker lab are working on a number of projects that are all related to similar science. And understanding RNA will help cure other diseases and defects.

RNA can be incorporated or involved in protein structure too, of course. Proteins, RNA, DNA etc do not exist in isolation in a cell, and they can affect each other to greater or lesser extents.
