Ribozyme

rRNA has the catalytic role in peptide bond formation. The enzyme previously known as peptidyl transferase is actually a ribozyme, the 23S rRNA(bacteria)

... the eukaryotic nucleus(there are other introns that do not need SNRPs for splicing). The leading hypothesis is that the snRNA actually acts like a ribozyme, catalysing the chemical reactions(transesterification reactions), while the proteins simply stabilise the structure of the spliceosome and ...

... i.e., to increase efficiency and minimize the intracellular accumulation of non-functional mRNA transcripts. As in the antisense approach, the ribozymes of the invention can be composed of modified oligonucleotides (e.g. for improved stability, targeting, etc.) and should be delivered to cells ...

also, recent research found that RNA imolecules are not merely passive Yupz...and that's the invention of ribozyme.. :lol: it's a cool name actually.. :mrgreen:

oh, now im realize my mistake. actually, they are protein, but has some exemption for both of them. such as enzyme such as ribozyme that take part in translation is not a protein. it work in the protein free enviroment. maybe my english not so good. so thanks canalon for the correction.
