The 37 pages that link to Messenger RNA, each with the reason it gives.

• Gene expressionBroader topic: It carries a transcribed coding sequence to the machinery that builds a protein.

• ProteinRelated: Messenger RNA provides the sequence template read during protein synthesis.

• RibosomeRelated: Its codons specify the sequence read by the ribosome.

• RNABroader topic: It is the RNA type translated into a protein sequence.

• Genetic codeRelated: The code is conventionally written as assignments for messenger RNA codons.

• Francis CrickRelated: Crick and colleagues helped establish its role as an intermediary in gene expression.

• TranscriptionBroader topic: Transcription of protein-coding genes produces the precursor to this RNA.

• Transfer RNARelated: Its codons provide the sequence that transfer RNA interprets.

• Translation (biology)Narrower topic: Its nucleotide sequence provides the template that ribosomes decode.

• Ribosomal RNARelated: Ribosomal RNA helps bind and correctly position the message being translated.

• RNA sequencingBroader topic: Poly(A)-selected RNA-seq primarily measures mature messenger RNA.

• CodonNarrower topic: Codons are defined as triplets in this RNA during translation.

• Protein biosynthesisRelated: Its codon sequence supplies the template read during protein biosynthesis.

• RNA polymeraseBroader topic: RNA polymerase II produces most cellular messenger RNA in eukaryotes.

• 30S ribosomal subunitRelated: The 30S subunit binds its codons and positions them for decoding.

• RNA editingRelated: Many well-studied editing events alter messenger-RNA coding sequences.

• mRNA vaccineNarrower topic: It supplies the temporary instructions for producing the vaccine’s antigen.

• Protein synthesis inhibitorRelated: Translation inhibitors can alter how ribosomes read messenger RNA codons.

• MicroRNARelated: MicroRNAs regulate gene expression by binding these transcripts.

• IntronNarrower topic: Its processed form usually lacks the introns present in its precursor.

• Sydney BrennerBroader topic: Brenner’s experiments provided early evidence for this short-lived intermediary.

• TranscriptomicsRelated: Many transcriptomic workflows enrich or otherwise prioritize messenger RNA.

• David BaltimoreRelated: Baltimore’s classification distinguishes viruses partly by how they make messenger RNA.

• ExonNarrower topic: Joined exons form the sequence of a mature messenger RNA.

• UracilBroader topic: Uracil is incorporated throughout messenger RNA during transcription.

• Complementary DNARelated: Messenger RNA is a common template for making cDNA.

• NucleofectionRelated: Delivering messenger RNA enables temporary protein expression without requiring DNA transcription.

• Post-transcriptional modificationRelated: Its maturation commonly includes capping, splicing, and addition of a poly(A) tail.

• Regulation of gene expressionRelated: Its processing, stability, and translation determine how much protein a gene yields.
