mRNA Therapeutics and mRNA Vaccines Industry: Current Scenario and Future Trends

Roots Analysis

It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein. Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) is a single-stranded molecule that is complementary to a gene’s DNA.
