Which of the following is a ribozyme?
A) Clp protease
B) release factor
C) trigger factor
D) peptidyl transferase
E) aminoacyl-tRNA transferase

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Peptidyl transferase is a ribozyme located within the large subunit of the ribosome that is responsible for catalyzing the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids during protein synthesis. Clp protease, release factor, trigger factor, and aminoacyl-tRNA transferase are all proteins involved in various aspects of protein synthesis and degradation, but they are not ribozymes.
