Is there a way in teradata through SQL or a procedure/function to 'find and replace' text ?

I am trying to convert the following SQL server function

     CREATE FUNCTION .fnTextClean
     (@string_expression1 nvarchar(4000))
     RETURNS nvarchar(4000)

     AS

     BEGIN
           DECLARE @tempstring AS nvarchar(4000)

           SET @tempstring=RTRIM(@string_expression1)
           SET @tempstring=REPLACE (@tempstring, """", "``")
           SET @tempstring=REPLACE(@tempstring,"'","`")
           SET @tempstring=REPLACE(@tempstring,"?","?")
           SET @tempstring=REPLACE(@tempstring,"&","and")
           SET @tempstring=REPLACE(@tempstring,"+","and")
           RETURN @tempstring
     END
