Messenger RNA
Videos
Messenger ribonucleic acid is a single-stranded molecule of RNA that corresponds to the genetic sequence of a gene, and is read by a ribosome in the process of synthesizing a protein.

Messenger RNA
…RNA (rRNA), the central component of the ribosome's protein-manufacturing machinery. The concept of mRNA was first conceived by Sydney Brenner and Francis Crick in 1960 during a conversation with François Jacob. In May 1961, messenger RNA was experimentally characterized in two back-to-back Nature papers: one…

Results from an fMRI experiment in which people made a conscious decision about a visual stimulus. The small region of the brain coloured orange shows patterns of activity that correlate with the decision making process. Crick stressed the importance of finding new methods to probe human brain function.
