摘要
RNA was proposed to have been the most important biopolymer in the first Life on Earth in 1968 by Crick and Orgel. The finding by Cech and Altman in 1982 that RNA can catalyze reactions as well as store genetic information supported this hypothesis. More recent experimental findings concerning this postulate for the origins of life will be discussed.
