tRNA
MicroRNA is a type of small non-coding RNA consisting of about 80 nucleotides that forms a looped secondary structure. It plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression by binding to target messenger RNA molecules.
The minimum number of nucleotides in an mRNA molecule encoding a protein of 80 amino acids is 243 nucleotides. This is because each amino acid is encoded by a codon, which consists of three nucleotides. Therefore, for 80 amino acids, you would need 80 codons, resulting in 80 x 3 = 240 nucleotides, plus at least one additional nucleotide for a stop codon, totaling 243 nucleotides.
This description matches a microRNA (miRNA). MiRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that are about 18-25 nucleotides in length and often assume a looped structure. They play important roles in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression.
Nucleic Acids ( I think)
80 nucleotides.

DNA and RNA are nucleic acids consisting of nucleotides.
Adenine and Guanine are structurally similar purine nucleotides, characterized by a double-ring structure. Cytosine and Thymine are structurally similar pyrimidine nucleotides, consisting of a single ring.
[Macromolecular] Chains of ribose based nucleotides are Rna while Chains of 2'-Deoxy Ribose based nucleotides are called Dna.
No, nucleic acids are biopolymers made up of nucleotides linked together in a chain. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids, consisting of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base.
Yes, nucleotides pair with specific complementary nucleotides based on their chemical properties.
DNA and RNA are organic substances that are composed of nucleotides. A nucleotide contains a sugar, a phosphate group, and an organic base.
