Abstract
DNA and RNA — the nucleic acids within our cells — are more than information carrier in the flow of genetic information within biological systems. They fulfil very diverse functions in numerous cellular processes, such as the regulation of gene expression and cell signalling, they mediate protein interactions, control enzyme activity, can catalyse chemical reactions and are crucial for cellular immunity. Here, I discuss their multifaceted roles from a nucleic acids perspective.
