== What's in the name? | ||
|
||
RNP is widely recognized in the biological sciences as an acronym for | ||
"ribonucleoprotein." | ||
|
||
The name was selected due to its strong association with the company name, | ||
Ribose, which refers to a type of sugar, and its significance to life on Earth. | ||
The human ribosome, a molecular machine that translates RNA into proteins, | ||
consists of two ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles. The RNP logo itself | ||
represents an abstract structure of the ribosome. | ||
|
||
Although the acronym RNP was not intended to be back-fitted with specific words, | ||
it originated from "R" representing Ribose and "P" for OpenPGP, aligning it with | ||
the biological acronym "RNP." | ||
