Rna world and Luca Flashcards
What is Rna
Phosphate group
basic structure
many roles
Making/getting RNA
Do novo
Panspermia
Do-novo
Water, methane,ammonia, hydrogen,,carbon monoxide (On Earth already)
specific order and method
Panspermia
Life on Earth began from elsewhere
Material based Panspermia seed (M-BPS)
Assembly of chains
Montmorillonite clay
Crystal structure (catalyzes polyerization,assembly)
Rna polynucleotides form
start of amino acid chain
RNa to protein (main Rna)
Messenger Rna-codes
Ribosmal RNa-transports
Transfer rna-assembles
MRT.
order of protein assembly important
Need instructions
“like ikea
Can’t put together wrong way
Assembly of proteins
Cyclic process- dumb testosterone said RIP
selection of proteins
Functional variants
Diversification, translation,screening, or selection, Replication
Stress=specific phenotype
Timeline of life
Prebiotic chemistry-pre-cellular life-early cellular life-Luca-Evolutionary diversification
RNA world assembly,and replication
generation-RNA ribosome and selection
LUCA
Last universal common ancestor
forerunner of all living things
complex
had organelles
Cell?
Formation of eukaryotes
prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles
where do they come from?
Ways:Autogenic,endosymbiotic
autogenic (Autogenous)
ER, Golgi, Lysosomes, nuclear membrane
Eukaryotes arose directly from a single prokaryote ancestor
infoldings of the prokaryote plasma membrane
Endosymbiotic
Mitochondria,chloroplasts
some organelles of modern eukaryotic cells invaded from
symbiotic associations with prokaryotic ancestors
2 endosymbiosis events
overtime development and diversification
