Figure 2. Nonenzymatic copying of mixed (G+C) RNA templates.

Figure 2

Primer, template, and monomers were encapsulated inside oleic acid vesicles as described in the experimental design. Primer extension was conducted with either no dialysis (lane 1), five exchanges of activated monomer (lane 2), or ten exchanges of activated monomer (lane 3) over 48 hours. The methods for preparation of fatty acid vesicles and encapsulated RNA primer extension are described in our previous work.1
