Answer:

When the cell needs to produce a certain protein, it activates the protein's gene–the portion of DNA that codes for that protein–and produces multiple copies of that piece of DNA in the form of messenger RNA, or mRNA. ... We now know that RNA can also act as enzymes (called ribozymes) to speed chemical reactions.
