A ribozyme that triphosphorylates RNA 5′-hydroxyl groups
The RNA world hypothesis describes a stage in the early evolution of life in which RNA served as genome and as the only genome-encoded catalyst. To test whether RNA world organisms could have used cyclic trimetaphosphate as an energy source, we developed

Ribonuclease P (RNase P) is a class of enzymes involved in the processing of precursor tRNAs to remove their 5'-leader sequences. Ribonuclease P enzymes are classified into two completely distinct classes, i.e.

New tools provide a second look at HDV ribozyme structure, dynamics and cleavage
The hepatitis delta virus (HDV) ribozyme is a self-cleaving RNA enzyme essential for processing viral transcripts during rolling circle viral replication.

Ripping RNA by Force using Gaussian Network Models [PDF]
Using force as a probe to map the folding landscapes of RNA molecules has become a reality thanks to major advances in single molecule pulling experiments. Although the unfolding pathways under tension are complicated to predict studies in the context of proteins have shown that topology plays is the major determinant of the unfolding landscapes.

Autocatalytic Sets and RNA Secondary Structure [PDF]
The dominant paradigm in origin of life research is that of an RNA world. However, despite experimental progress towards the spontaneous formation of RNA, the RNA world hypothesis still has its problems. Here, we introduce a novel computational model of chemical reaction networks based on RNA secondary structure and analyze the existence of ...
