The naturally trans-acting ribozyme RNase P RNA has leadzyme properties

Divalent metal ions promote hydrolysis of RNA backbones generating 5′OH and 2′;3′P as cleavage products. In these reactions, the neighboring 2′OH act as the nucleophile. RNA catalyzed reactions also require divalent metal ions and a number of different metal ions function in RNA mediated cleavage of...
