MeSH Heading: RNA
Tree Number(s): D13.444.735
Unique ID: D012313
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012313
Annotation: /immunol: consider also IMMUNE RNA MANIPULATION see IMMUNOTHERAPY, ACTIVE
Scope Note: A polynucleotide consisting essentially of chains with a repeating backbone of phosphate and ribose units to which nitrogenous bases are attached. RNA is unique among biological macromolecules in that it can encode genetic information, serve as an abundant structural component of cells, and also possesses catalytic activity.
