Molecular trade-offs in RNA ligases affected the modular emergence of complex ribozymes at the origin of life
TL;DR: It is revealed that molecular size could have increased from the activity of small ligases joining oligonucleotides to their own end and there is a size-associated molecular-level trade-off that could have impacted the evolution of RNA-based life.
