Dissipative Photochemical Abiogenesis of the Purines [PDF]

open access: goldEntropy, 2022
We have proposed that the abiogenesis of life around the beginning of the Archean may have been an example of “spontaneous” microscopic dissipative structuring of UV-C pigments under the prevailing surface ultraviolet solar spectrum.

The requirement of cellularity for abiogenesis

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
The history of modern biochemistry started with the cellular theory of life. By putting aside the holistic protoplasmic theory, scientists of the XX century were able to advance the functional classification of cellular components significantly. The cell

The Dissipative Photochemical Origin of Life: UVC Abiogenesis of Adenine

open access: greenEntropy, 2021
The non-equilibrium thermodynamics and the photochemical reaction mechanisms are described which may have been involved in the dissipative structuring, proliferation and complexation of the fundamental molecules of life from simpler and more common ...

Additional Remarks on Abiogenesis [PDF]

open access: greenNature, 1873
SINCE my communication in NATURE, March 20, a further investigation of the subject has shown me that the experiments there recorded do not yet fully prove the reality of abiogenesis. My argumentation based on those experiments is liable to the following objection:—

New Experiments on Abiogenesis [PDF]

open access: greenNature, 1873
HAVING occupied myself for some time past with an experimental study of abiogenesis, I have followed with much interest the controversies on that question in recent numbers of NATURE, and beg leave therefore to state to the readers of this journal the results of my experiments, which form in my opinion a not unimportant contribution to the solution of ...

The Informational Substrate of Chemical Evolution: Implications for Abiogenesis [PDF]

open access: goldLife, 2019
A key aspect of biological evolution is the capacity of living systems to process information, coded in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and used to direct how the cell works.

Undefining life's biochemistry: implications for abiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society Interface, 2022
In the mid-twentieth century, multiple Nobel Prizes rewarded discoveries of a seemingly universal set of molecules and interactions that collectively defined the chemical basis for life. Twenty-first-century science knows that every detail of this Central Dogma of Molecular Biology can vary through either biological evolution, human engineering ...

Liquid–liquid phase separation as a driver of abiogenesis and evolution

open access: diamondAcademia Molecular Biology and Genomics
The origin of life may have emerged through physical mechanisms that enable molecular organization and self-assembly. Building on Alexander Oparin’s concept of coacervate droplets, liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) offers a plausible route

Is Tumorigenesis an Abiogenesis?

open access: diamondOpen Access Journal of Cancer & Oncology, 2019
CLN-IgG (Pritumuab) was subjected to clinical trials aiming at regression of brain tumors. The mechanism underlying the dramatic recuperation of cancer patient was considered by means of augmentation of idiotypic antibody-mediated internal image transmission of the vimentin epitope-vipidam. Silencing of prionogenicity of vimentin by chaperonic antibody

The Chemical Origin of Behavior is Rooted in Abiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2012
We describe the initial realization of behavior in the biosphere, which we term behavioral chemistry. If molecules are complex enough to attain a stochastic element to their structural conformation in such as a way as to radically affect their function ...
