What is mRNA?
Messenger ribonucleic acid, mRNA, vaccines have been discussed by the general public for the past year (2020) in regards to COVID vaccines. Many sites explore how mRNA works but here we explore what mRNA is, exploring why mRNA codes for certain proteins and what mRNA does within our cells.
