Avoidance of error catastrophe via proofreading innate to template-directed polymerization
An important issue for the origins of life is ensuring the accurate maintenance of information in replicating polymers in the face of inevitable errors. Here, we investigated how this maintenance depends on reaction kinetics by incorporating the elementary steps of polymerization into the population...
