Question

Which type of RNA causes degradation of specific RNA molecules in the cytoplasm of eukaryotes?

पर्याय

• Genomic RNA

• snRNA (small nuclear RNA)

• siRNA (small interfering RNA)

• snoRNA (small nucleolar RNA)

Answer 1

siRNA (small interfering RNA) is located in the cytoplasm of eukaryotes and causes degradation of specific RNA molecules. This is distinct from miRNA, which inhibits translation of mRNA without causing degradation.
