RNA
RNA, short for Ribonucleic Acid, is a molecule found in the human body that is able to form polymers and secondary structures, and can be used for various activities including decoding DNA and transferring the information to the Ribosome (tRNA), incorporation into the Ribosome (rRNA), as well as many regulatory activities concerning the expression of genes.
