The Evolving Chronology of Moon Formation

Lars E. Borg et al.

Summary: Defining the age of the Moon has been challenging due to the need for reliable dating of lunar samples using radiometric isotopic systems associated with planet formation. The crystallization of the magma ocean is the only event that meets this criterion, with ages around 4.35 billion years recorded in lunar rock types. This age is also observed in secondary crustal rocks, suggesting contemporaneous production during magma ocean crystallization and overturn.

Unique H2-utilizing lithotrophy in serpentinite-hosted systems

Masaru Konishi Nobu et al.

Summary: The serpentinization of ultramafic rocks can provide molecular hydrogen (H-2) for microorganisms, but the conditions in these environments are extremely challenging. Through metagenomics and thermodynamics, researchers have discovered unique microbial taxa in serpentinization-active systems that are adapted to these conditions. These microorganisms utilize alternative modes of H-2-utilizing lithotrophy, specifically using reduced carbon compounds rather than CO2. This research sheds light on potential strategies that extremophiles may employ in serpentinization-associated environments, which could also be relevant to primordial lithotrophy on early Earth.

Molecular Basis of the Electron Bifurcation Mechanism in the [FeFe]- Hydrogenase Complex HydABC

Alexander. Katsyv et al.

Summary: Electron bifurcation is a fundamental energy coupling mechanism used by microorganisms in anoxic conditions to reduce CO2 using hydrogen. The enzyme responsible for these reactions, HydABC, uses a single flavin mononucleotide (FMN) cofactor to transfer electrons to NAD(P)+ and low-potential ferredoxins (Fd), and switches between NAD(P)+ reduction and Fd reduction modes. Understanding the mechanistic principles of electron-bifurcating hydrogenases can provide insight into energy conversion processes in microorganisms.

On the potential roles of phosphorus in the early evolution of energy metabolism

Jack W. F. Nicholls et al.

Summary: Energy metabolism in extant life is centered around ATP, which relies on complex enzymes and autocatalytic requirements. Primordial alternatives to ATP may have utilized phosphorylated compounds, but the scarcity of bioavailable phosphate on early Earth raises doubts. A overlooked phosphorus redox cycle might have played a key role in early energy metabolism, and the review discusses the evolutionary history of bioenergetics and the importance of phosphorus in early biology.

Recent experiments have shown nonenzymatic versions of core metabolic pathways, but limited demonstrations exist for nonenzymatic reactions along the de novo ribonucleotide biosynthesis pathways. This study demonstrates the nonenzymatic conversion of aspartate to orotate under specific conditions in the presence of metals, suggesting that life may have refined existing nonenzymatic reaction channels for pyrimidine nucleobase biosynthesis.

Summary: This study investigates the catalytic activities of mineral catalysts at hydrothermal vents in the conversion of CO2 into reduced carbon compounds. The results show that all catalysts surveyed can convert CO2 into methane, methanol, carbon monoxide, and low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons with varying activity and selectivity. The formation of oxygenates such as formate and acetate, which are key intermediates in the ancient acetyl-coenzyme A pathway of carbon metabolism, is also observed. The findings highlight the robust and biologically relevant catalytic activities of silica-based transition metal minerals in H2-rich CO2 fixation.

A prebiotic basis for ATP as the universal energy currency

Silvana Pinna et al.

Summary: ATP is universally conserved in cells and is believed to have arisen early in biochemical evolution. However, the process of purine synthesis, which requires ATP hydrolysis, suggests the need for an earlier prebiotic ATP equivalent. This study shows that acetyl phosphate (AcP) might have functioned as an early phosphorylating agent, linking acetyl CoA to the phosphorylation of ADP. The preferred interaction between AcP and Fe3+ ions suggests a chemically favorable formation mechanism for ATP under prebiotic conditions.

Mechanistic Insight into Metal Ion-Catalyzed Transamination

Summary: Metal ions can catalyze transamination under biologically relevant conditions, with Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+, and V5+ identified as the most active. These ions primarily accelerate the reaction by stabilizing key imine intermediates or increasing the acidity of the bound imine. Direct metal ion-catalyzed amino group transfer is highly favored even in the absence of cofactors or protein catalysts under biologically compatible reaction conditions.

Coenzymes, containing nucleobases or nucleoside moieties, are believed to have been the catalytic active sites of ancient ribozymes before transitioning into their current forms as protein apoenzymes during evolution. This groundbreaking hypothesis has gained support from various research disciplines and has sparked similar hypotheses about other classes of cofactors.
