A conceptual era in Earth’s early evolution in which life began as biologically active, self-replicating molecules—catalytic RNA—that were later assisted by crude polypeptides See Primordial soup, Urkingdom

Cellular, Molecular and Developmental Biology by Journal of the Mississippi Academy of Sciences Fans of the RNA world hypothesis, a scenario in which life began with RNA and later added DNA and proteins to its repertoire, are therefore seeking to create self-replicating RNA molecules to mirror those with which life on Earth might have originated. RNA world begins to add up by Science News To support the RNA world hypothesis, numerous artificial RNA enzymes (ribozymes) have been isolated by the powerful combinatorial technique called SELEX.
