Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules are the structural components of the ribosome. Ensures the proper alignment of mRNA, tRNA, and ribosome during protein synthesis; catalyzes peptide bond formation between amino acids.
mRNA — Serves as intermediary between DNA and protein; used by ribosome to direct synthesis of protein it encodes.
tRNA — Carries the correct amino acid to the site of protein synthesis in the ribosome.
