RNA swivel, also referred to as RNA rotate, is a process of rotation in RNA molecules that aids in transcription and translation. There are several synonyms associated with RNA swivel, including RNA hinge, RNA joint, and RNA pivot. These terms refer to the same phenomenon of flexibility and movement within RNA molecules that allow for proper functioning in cellular processes. Additionally, RNA twist, RNA turn, and RNA bend may also be used as synonyms for RNA swivel, reflecting the varying degrees of rotational movement that occur in RNA structures. These terms are essential in understanding the complex mechanisms of RNA processing and the biology of living organisms.
