Mineral surfaces select for longer RNA molecules.

Ryo Mizuuchi1, Alex Blokhuis, Lena Vincent, Philippe Nghe, Niles Lehman, David Baum.   

Abstract

We report empirically and theoretically that multiple prebiotic minerals can selectively accumulate longer RNAs, with selectivity enhanced at higher temperatures. We further demonstrate that surfaces can be combined with a catalytic RNA to form longer RNA polymers, supporting the potential of minerals to develop genetic information on the early Earth.
