Which of the following statement is TRUE about Ribozyme?
Correct Answer: Pepitdyl transferase activity
Description: Ribozymes are RNA molecules with catalytic activity. These generally involve trans esterification reactions, and most are concerned with RNA metabolism (splicing and endoribonuclease). Recently, a rRNA component has been implicated in hydrolyzing an aminoacyl ester and thus to play a central role in peptide bond function (peptidyl transferases.) Ref: Weil P. (2011). Chapter 36.
