The noun MRNA has 1 sense: 1. the template for protein synthesis; the form of RNA that carries information from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome sites of protein synthesis in the cell. Familiarity information: MRNA used as a noun is very rare.
The purpose of mRNA is to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosome for translation. mRNA is read in a series of triplets called codons. For example, the mRNA sequence AUGAAGCACUAC has four codons. Each codon corresponds to one amino acid.
