Prebiotic synthesis of hydrophobic and protein amino acids.

D Ring, Y Wolman, N Friedmann, S L Miller.   

Abstract

The formation of amino acids by the action of electric discharges on a mixture of methane, nitrogen, and water with traces of ammonia was studied in detail. The presence of glycine, alanine, alpha-amino-n-butyric acid, alpha-aminoisobutyric acid, valine, norvaline, isovaline, leucine, isoleucine, alloisoleucine, norleucine, proline, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine, threonine, allothreonine, alpha-hydroxy-gamma-aminobutyric acid, and alpha,gamma-diaminobutyric acid was confirmed by ion-exchange chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. All of the primary alpha-amino acids found in the Murchison Meteorite have been synthesized by this electric discharge experiment.
