Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) is the RNA component of the ribosome, the organelle that is the site of protein synthesis in all living cells. Ribosomal RNA provides a mechanism for decoding mRNA into amino acids and interacts with tRNAs during translation by providing peptidyl transferase activity.
The tRNAs bring the necessary amino acids corresponding to the appropriate mRNA codon.
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is also transcribed from DNA but is not a code carrier. This RNA becomes a structural part of the protein synthesizing molecular machines known as ribosomes.
