RNA can be degraded by Ribonucleases (aka RNases). These are enzymes found all over the inside and outside of your body and are made by all living things. RNA isn't alive, so it is not being killed; it is being fragmented into small pieces.
The three main kinds of RNA are messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). mRNA carries genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis, tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome during translation, and rRNA forms the core structure of the ribosome and catalyzes protein synthesis.
The RNA that is in the shape of a cloverleaf is transfer RNA (tRNA), while the RNA that is in the shape of a hairpin is messenger RNA (mRNA) or microRNA (miRNA). These structures are important for the function and stability of these RNA molecules in cells.
rna polymerase
Yes, transcription requires RNA polymerase for the synthesis of RNA molecules.
RNA is synthesized by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. This enzyme catalyzes the process of transcription in which RNA is produced from a DNA template. RNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing RNA strand according to the complementary base pairing rules.
RNA itself difficult to handle because of its unstable nature. Unlike DNA, RNA has free 2'-OH group in their ribose sugar that make them highly reactive. Other than this, RNAse contamination is everywhere (during isolation RNAase from our skin can kill RNA).
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) can kill cancer cells by targeting specific genes or pathways that are crucial for cancer cell survival or growth. When siRNA enters the cancer cells, it binds to its complementary mRNA, leading to degradation of the mRNA and inhibition of protein synthesis. This disrupts crucial cellular processes in the cancer cells, ultimately leading to their death.
RNA polymerase is an enzyme that makes a RNA copy from an RNA template.
The three types of RNA are: mRNA (messanger RNA), rRNA (ribosomal RNA), and tRNA (transfer RNA).

Messenger RNA Transcription RNA Ribosomal RNA
There are many viruses with RNA. Here are a few examples: Ebola virus, HIV, and the viruses causing measles, mumps, polio, rabies, rubella, and yellow fever. In the Baltimore classification of viruses, four of the seven major groups (classes III to VI) store their genetic information in RNA. For further information, look at the links below. technically hat is not true because RNA viruses don't kill.
The three types of RNA include; messenger RNA (mRNA), RNA polymerase, and transfer RNA (tRNA).

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.
The four types of RNA are messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and small nuclear RNA (snRNA). Each type plays a specific role in the process of protein synthesis within cells.
