Experiment sheds light on the molecular evolution of RNA. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have for the first time been able to create an RNA molecule that replicates, diversifies, and develops complexity, following Darwinian evolution. This has provided the first empirical evidence that simple biological molecules can lead to the emergence of complex lifelike … Continue reading New Insight Into Possible Origins of Life: For the First Time Researchers Create an RNA Molecule That Replicates
