Introduction:

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is the nucleic acid found as genetic material in some viruses and bacteria. The RNA molecules are of varying types in organisms with each having a unique set of functions. Some are involved in the process of protein synthesis whereas other perform regulatory functions such as splicing and RNA silencing.
