A scientist is studying the function of a newly discovered toxin. She discovers that the toxin enters cells and disables the function of endogenous ribonucleic acid (RNA) components. In order to further investigate the function of this toxin, she adds purified toxin to cultured cells and analyzes the changes that occur after treatment. She finds that compared with wild-type cells, treated cells produce proteins with long peptide sequences inserted into the middle of the protein. They also produce other proteins that are abnormally truncated. Which of the following types of RNA is most likely disabled by this toxin?
