Scientists Nearing Success in Recreating the Origin of Life
Originally Published 7 months ago — by Yahoo
Scientists from UCL have made progress in replicating RNA in laboratory conditions similar to early Earth by preventing the RNA double helix from zipping together, providing insights into how the first living organisms might have formed during the Earth's ancient 'RNA World' era. Although they have only achieved partial replication so far, this research marks a significant step toward understanding the origins of life.
