A Chemical Engineering Perspective on the Origins of Life
Martha A. Grover,Christine He,Ming-Chien Hsieh,Sheng Sheng Yu +3 more
- 05 May 2015
TL;DR: An overview of the origins field is given in this article, with particular emphasis on the origin of biopolymers and the role of chemical engineering phenomena, highlighting the importance of the environment and its coupling to the chemistry.
Synthesis of prebiotic organics from CO2 by catalysis with meteoritic and volcanic particles
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors demonstrate that iron-rich meteoritic and volcanic particles activate and catalyse the fixation of CO 2 , yielding the key precursors of life-building blocks.
Stable isotope and photosynthetic response of tea grown under different temperature and light conditions.
Wei Xia,Chunlin Li,Jing Nie,Shengzhi Shao,Karyne M. Rogers,Yongzhi Zhang,Zuguang Li,Yuwei Yuan +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the stable isotope and photosynthesis response of Camellia sinensis was determined under different light and temperature conditions, and the results showed that isotopes of young tea leaves were more enriched with increasing light intensity.

Is the Early Evolution of Life Related to the Development of the Earth's Core?
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that even if the Earth's magnetic field was inconsequential in Archaean times, the effect on the development of life on the planet Earth would not havo been deleterious; and indeed, may have been salutary.

A Production of Amino Acids Under Possible Primitive Earth Conditions
TL;DR: In this study, an apparatus was built to circulate CHI4, NH3, H2O, and H2 past an electric discharge, and the resulting mixture has been tested for amino acids by paper chromatography.
On the Evolution of Biochemical Syntheses
TL;DR: Evidence on the postulated gene-enzyme relationship is in most cases, however, still circumstantial; this is partly Because of technical difficulties involved in the study of synthetic, or free-energy consuming reactions in vitro, and partly because of the insufficiency of biochemical information on those reactions which happen to be susceptible of genetic analysis.
