Did you know that RNA can fold into different shapes? There are many different types of RNA, including Transfer RNAs (or tRNAs for short), that fold into different shapes to help them function and be stable! tRNAs are folded into a distinct L-shape that allows them carry out their key role in protein synthesis. Learn more about tRNA and its shape by creating your own paper model of it! Check out our instructions and printable paper for folding here: https://lnkd.in/emRhucQ8
