Abstract
⺠Anaerobic dry/wet cycles simulate prebiotic conditions. ⺠Nucleoside monophosphates polymerize under these conditions. ⺠Heat provides activation energy. ⺠The presence of lipids in the medium enhances the reaction yield by 74%. ⺠Nucleic acids replicate under these conditions with 0.5% yield and 9.9% error rate.
