Question: RNA Can Act In A Catalytic Fashion. One Such Example Is A Ribozyme, Where RNA Autocatalyzes The Cleavage Of The Phosphodiester Bond. Hammerhead Ribozyme Shown Above Is A Hydrogen Bonding Network Stabilizing The Transition State Extrapolated From The Crystal Structure Of The Hammerhead Ribozyme. Based On This Hydrogen Bonding Network, Draw A Mechanism …
RNA can act in a catalytic fashion. One such example is a ribozyme, where RNA autocatalyzes the cleavage of the phosphodiester bond. Hammerhead ribozyme Shown above is a hydrogen bonding network stabilizing the transition state extrapolated from the crystal structure of the hammerhead ribozyme. Based on this...
