  1. In molecular biology, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) 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.

  2. May 16, 2024 · messenger RNA (mRNA), molecule in cells that carries codes from the DNA in the nucleus to the sites of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm (the ribosomes). The molecule that would eventually become known as mRNA was first described in 1956 by scientists Elliot Volkin and Lazarus Astrachan.

  4. Aug 30, 2021 · Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a molecule that encodes a sequence that can be made into a protein. Scientists first learned about mRNA nearly 60 years ago, and researchers have been studying vaccines using mRNA for decades. The earliest COVID-19 vaccines authorized for use in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are mRNA vaccines.
