The evolution and functional repertoire of translation proteins following the origin of life
The RNA world hypothesis posits that the earliest genetic system consisted of informational RNA molecules that directed the synthesis of modestly functional RNA molecules. Further evidence suggests that it was...

Should the Teaching of Biological Evolution Include the Origin of Life?
The development of mainstream research on the origin of life as an outcome of Darwinian evolution is discussed. It is argued that prebiotic evolution and the origin of life should not be excluded from the syll...

The origin of a novel gene through overprinting in Escherichia coli
Overlapped genes originate by a) loss of a stop codon among contiguous genes coded in different frames; b) shift to an upstream initiation codon of one of the contiguous genes; or c) by overprinting, whereby a...

Distribution patterns of small-molecule ligands in the protein universe and implications for origin of life and drug discovery
Extant life depends greatly on the binding of small molecules (such as ligands) with macromolecules (such as proteins), and one ligand can bind multiple proteins. However, little is known about the global patt...
