Viroid replication is catalyzed by RNA Polymerase II through rolling circle synthesis, and some viroids act as ribozymes capable of self-cleavage.
La ARN polimerasa II cataliza la replicación de ARN viral mediante síntesis de círculo rodante; algunos viroides también funcionan como ribozimas y pueden auto-cortarse.
