Data, Information, and all that....

DNAUnion, I'd like to know a bit more about RNA, I'm guessing your in the 'know' after reading your posts. Is it true it exists only to protect DNA?(ofcourse I'm layman) If it's off topic maybe I could open a new topic? - if your uninterested fair enough, it's a busy time of the year ofcourse.

As a layman I'm a little confused I think I get some of that. Basically I agree with you about information, but I am unknowledgable about the subject so I don't qualify to take part in the debate.So RNA are used to make proteins, I'm wondering how these sort of things could evolve - I think it probably is another topic though.
- so it provides information to/ and makes up the ribosomes also?
Know of any websites? - so I can stop bothering you![This message has been edited by mike the wiz, 12-16-2003]

Thanks DNA'
I think I get it. RNA is made from DNA information, but polypeptides are made up from information in RNA.Also, The ribosome particles help making the polypeptides. The ribosome contains the protein and RNA.- Am I close? - Probably not[This message has been edited by mike the wiz, 12-16-2003]

Blimey,
Thankyou very much DNAUnion for going to all that trouble. I'll read it thoroughly tomorrow . That's a great effort there, thanks!!!I doubt I'll understand it all but I'll sure try!
