Glycolaldehyde is needed to form ribonucleic acid, or RNA, which is similar in function to DNA.

One way antisense RNA can act is by binding to an mRNA, forming double-stranded RNA that is enzymatically degraded.

EteRNA a game forming RNA by pairing bases.

Nucleotides are the fundamental molecules that combine in series to form RNA.

The most efficient molecules of RNA, the ones able to efficiently catalyze their own reproduction, survived and evolved, forming modern RNA.

With the addition of phosphorus to these other elements, it forms DNA and RNA, the chemical-code carriers of life, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the most important energy-transfer molecule in all living cells.

The role of RNA in the origin of life is best supported by the ease of forming RNA from basic chemical building blocks (such as amino acids, sugars, and hydroxyl acids) that were likely present 4 billion years ago.

This monomers are then ligated to form circular RNA.

Adenine is one of the basic molecules which form DNA and RNA.

Folate, also sometimes known as folic acid, helps form the genetic material DNA and RNA - the blueprints for our bodies.
