Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a nucleic acid, that is, it consists of a long chain of nucleotide units. Each nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, a ribose sugar, and a phosphate. RNA is very similar to DNA, but differs in a few important structural details: in the cell, RNA is usually single-stranded, while DNA is usually double-stranded;Structure · Comparison with DNA · Synthesis · Types of RNA · Discovery
The RNA world hypothesis proposes that a world filled with RNA (ribonucleic acid) based life predates current DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) based life. RNA, which can store information like DNA and catalyze reactions like proteins , may have supported cellular or pre-cellular life.History · Properties of RNA · Support · Difficulties · Details of the RNA world
