These catalytically active RNAs are found in all strata of life, from viruses to the human genome. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the end of the 1970s, the discovery of a catalytic RNA nestled in an intron, followed by another involved in the maturation of transfer RNAs, led to the discovery of new ribozymes and the transition from a strictly “proteocentric” vision, inherited from the dogma of molecular biology, to a more “nucleocentric” one. Since then, a variety of ribozymes have been identified in genomes, where their functions often remain mysterious. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLooking at Ribozymes\u003c\/i\u003e traces the discovery of these molecules and presents a picture of their functional diversity, catalytic mechanisms and distribution within the tree of life.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBenoît Masquida\u003c\/b\u003e is director of research at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and carries out his research and teaching activities at the University of Strasbourg, France.
