- “A polynucleotide system based on a ribozyme polymerase able sequentially to add the correct nucleotides and thus copy itself might work.” Good Math, Bad Math, and David Berlinkski - The Panda's Thumb
- Moreover there is preliminary evidence9 which suggests that secondary structure within a polynucleotide inhibits the power to stimulate protein synthesis. Francis Crick - Nobel Lecture
- But years of careful effort to find an enzyme-free polynucleotide system able to undergo replication cycles by sequentially and correctly adding the proper nucleotide to the newly synthesized strand have not yet succeeded 5,6. Good Math, Bad Math, and David Berlinkski - The Panda's Thumb
- Watson and Crick found that certain evidence ex cluded the possibility that the two polynucleotide chains of a DNA molecule are paranemically coiled, that is, are so coiled that they can simply slip into and out of each other. GENETIC CONTINUITY
