Question

What is a ribozyme?

a. an enzyme that uses rna as a substrate
b. an rna with enzymatic activity
c. an enzyme that catalyzes the association between the large and small ribosomal subunits
d. an enzyme that synthesizes rna as part of the transcription process
e. an enzyme that synthesizes rna primers during dna replication?

Answer 1

A ribozyme is an RNA with enzymatic activity.

Just like other enzymes, they can catalyze a chemical reaction, that is, they can help to accelerate a chemical reaction.
