Iron mediates catalysis of nucleic acid processing enzymes: support for Fe(II) as a cofactor before the great oxidation event
Life originated in an anoxic, Fe(2+)-rich environment. We hypothesize that on early Earth, Fe(2+) was a ubiquitous cofactor for nucleic acids, with roles in RNA folding and catalysis as well as in processing of nucleic acids by protein enzymes. In this model, Mg(2+) replaced Fe(2+) as the primary co...
