Template-directed polynucleotide synthesis on mineral surfacesFerric hydroxide, a plausible prebiotic material, strongly adsorbs polynucleotides. It is shown that adsorption on ferric hydroxide and on several other minerals has no effect, under the conditions studied, on the template-directed oligomerization of guanylic acid on polycytidylic acid.
