RNA is principally involved in the synthesis of proteins by transcription and translation of DNA ... In some viruses it is the sole nucleic acid, and hence the carrier of genetic information. RNA differs from DNA in containing the sugar ribose rather than deoxyribose; in having the base uracil in place of thymine; and in usually being single-stranded. 3, record 1, English, - ribonucleic%20acid
