RNA can be found in the nucleolus, making up ribosomes (rRNA), as well as molecules such as tRNA and mRNA.
No, RNA is not typically located in the nucleus of a cell. RNA is primarily found in the cytoplasm of a cell, where it plays a key role in protein synthesis.
Yes, RNA is able to leave the cell nucleus.
The largest amount of RNA in a cell can be found in the nucleus, where most of the cell's genetic material is stored and transcribed into RNA molecules. This includes messenger RNA (mRNA) that carries instructions for protein synthesis, as well as other types of RNA involved in various cellular processes.
Within the HIV capsid is the genetic material RNA along with two reverse transcriptase enzymes to copy the RNA into DNA inside the invaded cell.
RNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing RNA strands during transcription in a cell. It reads the DNA template strand and adds complementary RNA nucleotides to form an RNA strand.
Transcription (DNA -> RNA) happens in the nucleus where RNA polymerase makes single-stranded RNA from a template DNA strand.
Ribosomal RNA, Transfer RNA, and Messenger RNA
The mitochondria.
RNA is synthesized in the Nucleus of the cell.
Ribosomal RNA or rRNA.
If RNA extracted from a virus is injected into a host cell, the cell may begin to produce new viruses, provided the RNA is infectious and the host cell has the necessary machinery to translate and replicate the viral RNA. For many RNA viruses, the injected RNA can serve as a template for translation into viral proteins and for replication of new viral genomes. However, if the RNA is non-infectious or lacks necessary elements for translation and replication, the host cell will not produce new viruses.
If a cell lacked the enzyme RNA polymerase, it could not synthesize RNA from a DNA template, which is essential for the process of transcription. This would prevent the cell from producing messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA), thereby disrupting protein synthesis and various cellular functions. Ultimately, the absence of RNA polymerase would hinder gene expression and the overall viability of the cell.
