St. Peter's Basilica used for Mass like any Catholic church. Of course it is most well-known for for the papal liturgies which take place there. It should be noted however, that St. Peters is NOT a cathedral.
A basilica is just an architectural style used by a lot of Catholic churches, especially in the middle ages. It actually originated in the Roman Empire after Christianity became legalized. The Christians took over the Roman law buildings. The word "basilica" is from the Greek "basilike," which were the courthouses in the Roman Empire. Today, basilicas are just churches built in that architectural style. The Vatican is where the Pope lives and the center of the Catholic Church in the world. St. Peter's Basilica is the church in the Vatican, but there are many other basilicas around the world.

The Latin word basilica (derived from Greek, Basiliké Stoà, Royal Stoa), was originally used to describe a Roman public building (as in Greece, mainly a tribunal), usually located in the forum of a Roman town. In Hellenistic cities, public basilicas appeared in the 2nd century BC. Basilicas were also used for religious purposes. The remains of a large subterranean Neopythagorean basilica, dating from the 1st century, were found near the Porta Maggiore in 1915; the stuccoes on the interior vaulting have survived, though their exact interpretation remains a matter for debate. The groundplan of Christian basilicas in the 4th century were similar to that of this Neopythagorean basilica, which had three naves, and an apse. After the Roman Empire became officially Christian, the term came by extension to specifically refer to a large and important church that has been given special ceremonial rites by the Pope. Thus the word retains two senses today, one architectural and the other ecclesiastical.
