NCIt definition : A class of RNA molecule containing protein-coding information in its nucleotide sequence
that can be translated into the amino acid sequence of a protein.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A type of RNA found in cells. Messenger RNA molecules carry the genetic
information needed to make proteins. They carry the information from the DNA in the
nucleus of the cell to the cytoplasm where the proteins are made.; BRIDG 5.3: A representation of a member of the class of RNA molecules that contains
protein-coding information in its nucleotide sequence. EXAMPLE(S): Homo sapiens BRCA1
transcript variant 1 mRNA, GenBank identifier NM_007294.3, is available at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_007294.3
OTHER NAME(S): NOTE(S):;
NCIt note : Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional
processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to
the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic
acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail.;
