Infra-Red Assisted Synthesis of Prebiotic Glycine [PDF]
, 2019 In the present study, we have shown for the first time how glycine can be synthesized under prebiotic-like conditions using an Infra-Red laser to trigger the reaction.

Prebiotic Chemistry that Could Not Not Have Happened. [PDF]
Life (Basel), 2019 We present a direct route by which RNA might have emerged in the Hadean from a fayalite–magnetite mantle, volcanic SO2 gas, and well-accepted processes that must have created substantial amounts of HCHO and catalytic amounts of glycolaldehyde in the Hadean atmosphere.

Harnessing Chemical Energy for the Activation and Joining of Prebiotic Building Blocks [PDF]
, 2019 Simultaneous activation of carboxylates and phosphates provides multiple pathways for the generation of reactive intermediates, including mixed carboxylic acid-phosphoric acid anhydrides, for the synthesis of peptidyl-RNAs, peptides, RNA oligomers and ...

Organic compounds in fluid inclusions of Archean quartz-Analogues of prebiotic chemistry on early Earth. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The origin of life is still an unsolved mystery in science. Hypothetically, prebiotic chemistry and the formation of protocells may have evolved in the hydrothermal environment of tectonic fault zones in the upper continental crust, an environment where ...

Scum of the Earth: A Hypothesis for Prebiotic Multi-Compartmentalised Environments
Life, 2021 Compartmentalisation by bioenergetic membranes is a universal feature of life. The eventual compartmentalisation of prebiotic systems is therefore often argued to comprise a key step during the origin of life.

Do-Nothing Prebiotic Chemistry: Chemical Kinetics as a Window into Prebiotic Plausibility. [PDF]
Acc Chem ResOrigin of Life research is a fast growing field of study with each year bringing new breakthroughs. Recent discoveries include novel syntheses of life's building blocks, mechanisms of activation and interaction between molecules, and newly identified environments that provide promising conditions for these syntheses and mechanisms.

The influence of galactic cosmic rays on ion-neutral hydrocarbon chemistry in the upper atmospheres of free-floating exoplanets [PDF]
, 2014 The authors highlight financial support of the European Community under the FP7 by an ERC starting grant.Cosmic rays may be linked to the formation of volatiles necessary for prebiotic chemistry.

Activation Chemistry Drives the Emergence of Functionalized Protocells [PDF]
, 2020 The complexity of the simplest conceivable cell suggests that a systems chemistry approach is required tounderstand and potentially recapitulate the intricate network of prebiotic reactions that led to the emergenceof life.

Journal of Membrane Science Letters, 2022 Loose nanofiltration (LNF) membranes have shown promises in achieving efficient separation on molecular level at relatively low pressure. In this study, a zwitterionic PES/AMN/PSBAE LNF membrane was designed by co-depositing the AMN and an in-house made ...
