Principles of chemical geometry underlying chiral selectivity in RNA minihelix aminoacylation

The origin of homochirality in L-amino acid in proteins is one of the mysteries of the evolution of life. Experimental studies show that a non-enzymatic aminoacylation reaction of an RNA minihelix has a preference for L-amino acid over D-amino acid. The reaction initiates by approaching of a 3′-oxyg...
