Qualifier English: RNA, Catalytic
Qualifier Spanish: ARN Catalítico
Descriptor ARN catalítico
Entry term(s) ribozima
ribozimas
Scope note: ARN con actividad catalítica. La secuencia catalítica de ARN se pliega formando una superficie compleja que puede funcionar como una enzima en las reacciones con si mismo y con otras moléculas. Puede funcionar incluso en ausencia de proteina. Existen numerosos ejemplos de especies de ARN que actuan sobre el ARN catalítico, aunque el alcance de esta clase de enzima no se limita a un tipo particular de sustrato.
