Illustration of a ribonuclease P (RNase P) molecule. RNase P is a ribozyme, an RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecule that catalyses biochemical reactions. RNase P cleaves ptRNA (precursor transfer RNA) to form a mature functional tRNA. tRNA is RNA that transfers a specific active amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain at the site of protein synthesis during gene translation. | |
