Multiple prebiotic metals mediate translation
Today, Mg(2+) is an essential cofactor with diverse structural and functional roles in life’s oldest macromolecular machine, the translation system. We tested whether ancient Earth conditions (low O(2), high Fe(2+), and high Mn(2+)) can revert the ribosome to a functional ancestral state. First, SHA...
