What came first the DNA or protein? Discovery of ribozymes and the hypothesis of RNA world has given this question another dimension. Enzyme was the only known natural catalysts to the discovery of ribozymes.

Ribozymes (also known as RNA enzyme or catalytic RNA) are RNA particles that catalyze biochemic reaction. Thomas Cech and Altman were the first to discover ribozymes during 1980s and went on later to investigate the catalytic properties. Thomas Cech found that splicing of introns in a ribosomal RNA in ribosomal RNA gene in Tetrahymena thermohila were found to occur in the absence of additional cell extract. Sidney Altman and his colleagues, separated the bacterial RNase P, an enzyme responsible for changing a precursor to active tRNA. However it was found that in addition to the protein, the enzyme also contained RNA that could stimulate the cleavage of precursor tRNA into tRNA in the absence of protein component. Also, Thomas Cech gave the conclusion that the intron sequence of the RNA can break and reform phosdiester bonds. They won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the same thing in 1989. Natural ribosomes catalyze the hydrolysis of their own phosphodiester bonds. They also catalyze the aminotransferase activity. They also catalyze the hydrolysis of the other RNA. Ribozymes are so called because they act as enzymes in terms of their specificity and belong to RNA. However, they are different from enzymes because of the following reasons:

1) Unlike enzymes, ribozymes do not require specific pH and temperature
2) Ribozymes consists of nucleotides.
3) They do not have well defined regions, such as active site and catalyzed site.
4) They can act on a very small amounts of substances but perform a more limited set of instructions

A number of ribozymes have been discovered till date. The discovery of naturally occurring ribozymes is increasing, along with which several artificial ribozymes have also been synthesized. Due to their abilities, ribozymes have been investigated for applications as therapeutic agents, biosensors, and in genomics functions and discovery of genes.

Thomas Cech found that splicing of introns in ribosomal RNA in the ribosomal RNA gene in Tetrahymena thermophila occurred in the absence of additional cell extracts. Sidney Altman and his colleagues, discovered the bacterial RNase P, an enzyme responsible for converting precursor tRNA to its active form. However, it was found that in addition to proteins, the enzyme contained RNA that could stimulate the cleavage of precursor tRNA into tRNA in the absence of the protein component. In addition, Cech concluded that the intron sequence of RNA could cleave and reform phosphodiester bonds. They won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the same thing in 1989. Natural ribozymes catalyze the hydrolysis of their own phosphodiester bonds. They also catalyze the aminotransferase activity. Further, they catalyze the hydrolysis of other RNA. They are termed as ribozymes because they are as specific as enzymes and belong to RNA. However, they are different from enzymes because of the following reasons:

1) Unlike enzymes, ribozymes do not require a specific pH and temperature.
2) Ribozymes consist of nucleotides.
3) They do not have well-defined regions, such as active and catalytic sites.
4) They can act on very small amounts of substances but perform a more limited set of actions.

Many ribozymes have been discovered till date. The discovery of naturally occurring ribozymes is increasing along with the synthesis of several artificial ribozymes. Because of their abilities, ribozymes have been investigated for applications as therapeutic agents and biosensors as well as in genomic functions and discovery of genes.
