Origin of life from a maker's perspective -- focus on protocellular compartments in bottom-up synthetic biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The origin of life is shrouded in mystery, with few surviving clues, obscured by evolutionary competition. Previous reviews have touched on the complementary approaches of top-down and bottom-up synthetic biology to augment our understanding of living ...

RNP-world: The ultimate essence of life is a ribonucleoprotein process

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2022
The fundamental essence of life is based on process of interaction between nucleic acids and proteins. In a prebiotic world, amino acids, peptides, ions, and other metabolites acted in protobiotic routes at the same time on which RNAs performed catalysis

Formamide and the origin of life [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Life Reviews, 2012
The complexity of life boils down to the definition: "self-sustained chemical system capable of undergoing Darwinian evolution" (Joyce, 1994) [1]. The term "self-sustained" implies a set of chemical reactions capable of harnessing energy from the environment, using it to carry out programmed anabolic and catabolic functions.

A Constructive Way to Think about Different Hydrothermal Environments for the Origins of Life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The question of where life originated has been contentious for a very long time. Scientists have invoked many environments to address this question. Often, we find ourselves beholden to a location, especially if we think life originated once and then ...

What Does “the RNA World” Mean to “the Origin of Life”? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Corresponding to life’s two distinct aspects: Darwinian evolution and self-sustainment, the origin of life should also split into two issues: the origin of Darwinian evolution and the arising of self-sustainment. Because the “self-sustainment” we concern
