Wonderful are Your works......
Psalm 139:14 AMP
"Originally, RNA was only seen as a messenger in gene expression, a mere carrier of the information from the nucleus’ DNA to the ribosomes.
However, as with so many aspects of the human body and molecular biology, that was too simple of a description of RNA’s function. In the decades after RNA’s discovery, we’ve found that not only does RNA carry information for protein formation, but some RNAs—known as noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs)—are involved in numerous other cellular processes, including the regulation of gene expression itself.
Though these noncoding RNAs vary in size, they all function to help an organism adapt to the world around them. Rather than being simple carriers of information, they are instead incredibly designed to perform complex and essential functions.
These ncRNAs are an amazing testimony to God’s creativity and ingenuity, and by exploiting the natural functions of some of these RNA pathways, scientists are beginning to develop exciting new biotechnology products, including in the realms of medicine and pest control.

Even in the smallest of RNAs, there are powerful opportunities that God has provided for us to harness to help make human life better. As we explore these different types of noncoding RNAs and see the cutting-edge developments that they provide, we will see how God has carefully designed both humans and animals to function in incredible ways!"
