[[DNA, RNA and Proteins]] All living beings are reliant on three main molecules for essentially all of their biological functions. These molecules are [[DNA, RNA and Proteins]]. The two strands of [[DNA]] run in opposite directions to each other and are therefore adjacent to each other (anti-parallel). It is the sequence of these four nitrogen bases along the backbone that encodes biological information. Under the genetic code, RNA strands are translated to specify the sequence of amino acids within proteins. These RNA strands are initially created using DNA strands as a template in a process called transcription.Without DNA, RNA and proteins, no biological life would exist on earth. DNA is an intelligent molecule that encodes the complete set of genetic instructions (the genome) that is required to gather, maintain, and reproduce every living being. RNA has multiple vital roles in the coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genetics. RNA’s primary responsibility is to make proteins, according to the instruction sets encoded within a cell’s DNA.

DNA is made up of sugars, a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group. RNA is the same.
