An all-purine precursor of nucleic acids.

G Wächtershäuser.   

Abstract

The theory is proposed that the pyrimidines in extant nucleic acids are postenzymatic substitutes for their isoelectronic and isogeometric position 3-bonded purine analogs xanthine and isoguanine, which were sibling products in a preenzymatic de novo purine pathway.
