Is Amino-Acid Homochirality Due To Asymmetric Photolysis In Space? [PDF]
, 1999 Amino acids occurring in proteins are, with rare exceptions, exclusively of the L-configuration. Among the many scenarios put forward to explain the origin of this chiral homogeneity (i.e., homochirality), one involves the asymmetric photolysis of amino ...

Rate variation during molecular evolution: creationism and the cytochrome c molecular clock [PDF]
, 2017 Molecular clocks based upon amino acid sequences in proteins have played a major role in the clarification of evolutionary phylogenies. Creationist criticisms of these methods sometimes rely upon data that might initially seem to be paradoxical.
