The single-strand uracil-based ribsomal nucleic acid called mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) serves as the "blueprint" in protein synthesis. It carries instructions from DNA (double-stranded thymine-based deoxyribonucelic acid) in a cell's nucleus to a ribosome where protein synthesis is carried out. At the ribosome, rRNA (ribsomal ribonucleic acid) is the central component of the protein synthesis machinery that assembles amino acids to form a protein according to the mRNA information; tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid) provides the amino acids specified by the rRNA.

What important function do nucleic acids have in a cell?
The main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
Is protein made out of RNA strands?
No, protein is not made out of RNA strands. Proteins are composed of amino acids, while RNA is a nucleic acid that plays a role in protein synthesis. RNA is involved in translating the genetic information encoded in DNA into the sequence of amino acids that make up proteins.
What is the nucleic acids job?
To store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
How do the structure of nucleic acids relate to their functions of information storage and protein synthesis?
this is bullcrap i thought it says ask anything but it doesnt have the answer to my question
What is the function of nucleic acid?
ANSWERThe main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic material and use the information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
How is protein translated during protein synthesis?
From nucleic acids to amino acids
How is information during protein synthesis?
From nucleic acids to amino acids
The nucleic acids RNA and DNA work together to?
specify the order of amino acids in protein synthesis
The most important function of nucleic acids is?
storing information relayed to heredity and protein synthesis.
What main function of the nucleic acids?
The main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
What is the main function of nucleic acids in cells?
The main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
What macromolecules that function as the genetic material and are involved in protein systhesis are?
nucleic acids
What important function do nucleic acids have in a cell?
The main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
Do nucleic acids produce protein?
No. Nucleic acids are the building blocks of protein. There are various types of nucleic acids that form proteins.
What are two types of nucleic acids and what are their function?
They are RNA and DNA.They involve in carrying heriditary information and protein synthesis.
What is the main function of nucleic acids?
The main function of nucleic acids is to store and transmit genetic information and use that information to direct the synthesis of new protein.
What do the nucleic acids do in the body?
The nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes . Edit: NUCLEIC ACIDS ARE NOT PROTEINS. Do they have amino groups? No. Are they made out of Amino acids? no. Nucleic acids are polymers which are also known as RNA and DNA. They contain all of the information of the body.
