The goal of this blog is to concentrate new information on Ribozymes for reference to those interested in our topic. In addition to our blog, we are participating in a computing grid sponsored by RNAworld
whose aim is to use bioinformatic data to predict possible RNA molecules, as well as analyze unknown enzymatic activity.
