Prebiotic Protein Design supports a Halophile Origin of Foldable Proteins
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 There are significant challenges in forming testable hypotheses regarding abiogenesis (i.e., the origin of life); for example, the original environment on the early Earth during the process of abiogenesis is a matter of debate [although it was ...
