Which of the following RNAs is not required for the synthesis of protein?

Step-by-step solution

The process of synthesis of protein is called translation. It utilizes three types of RNA for the process: (1) mRNA: It carries the message for a sequence of amino acids in the form of genetic codons. (2) tRNA: It carries amino acids at its 3 ' end in charged form. Also, it has an anticodon loop to identify codons of mRNA. (3) rRNA: It forms the ribosomal subunits and hence is called ribosomal RNA. Ribosomes are called protein factories of the cell. siRNA or small interfering RNA is not used in the protein synt
