He is very likely has defect in which of the following mechanism
Peptidyl transferase activity
Cut DNA at specific site
Paicipate in DNA synthesis
GTPase activity
Ans. a. Peptidyl transferase activityRibozymes are RNA molecule with catalytic activitydeg. Ribozymes play a central role in peptide bond formation (peptidyl transferase activity).RibozymeRibozymes are RNA molecules with catalytic activityo.These generally involve transesterification reactions, and most are concerned with RNA metabolism (splicing and endoribonuclease).Recently, a ribosomal RNA component was noted to hydrolyze an aminoacyl ester and thus play a central role in peptide bond formation (peptidyl transferase)Q
