Definition:
ARN con actividad catalítica. La secuencia del ARN catalítico se dobla para formar una superficie compleja que puede funcionar como una enzima en reacciones con ella misma y otras moléculas. Puede funcionar incluso en ausencia de proteínas. El ARN catalítico puede actuar en numerosos tipos de ARN; sin embargo, el alcance de esta enzima no se limita a un tipo particular de sustrato.
