Deep Mantle-Atmosphere Coupling and Carbonaceous Bombardment: Options for Biomolecule Formation on an Oxidized Early Earth
Klaus Paschek, Thomas K. Henning, Karan Molaverdikhani +4
Understanding what environmental conditions prevailed on early Earth during the Hadean eon, and how this set the stage for the origins of life, remains a challenge. Geologic proces…
Prebiotic Vitamin B Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals
Klaus Paschek, Mijin Lee, Dmitry A. Semenov +1
Aqueous chemistry within carbonaceous planetesimals is promising for synthesizing prebiotic organic matter essential to all life. Meteorites derived from these planetesimals delive…
What it takes to solve the Origin(s) of Life: An integrated review of techniques
OoLEN, Silke Asche, Carla Bautista +35
Understanding the origin(s) of life (OoL) is a fundamental challenge for science in the 21st century. Research on OoL spans many disciplines, including chemistry, physics, biology,…
Possible Ribose Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals
Klaus Paschek, Kai Kohler, Ben K. D. Pearce +5
The origin of life might be sparked by the polymerization of the first RNA molecules in Darwinian ponds during wet-dry cycles. The key life-building block ribose was found in carbo…
Meteorites and the RNA World: Synthesis of Nucleobases in Carbonaceous Planetesimals and the Role of Initial Volatile Content
Klaus Paschek, Dmitry A. Semenov, Ben K. D. Pearce +3
Prebiotic molecules, fundamental building blocks for the origin of life, have been found in carbonaceous chondrites. The exogenous delivery of these organic molecules onto the Hade…
