THE VERY GREY ZONE. “In quasispecies the ensembles of RNA stem loops (ribozymatic hairpin structures) represent not solely content that rather specify self from nonself, but in parallel—and this truly seems the start of living processes—they act as agents, obedient to chemical/physical laws and, in contrast to interactions in the inanimate world, to syntactic, pragmatic, semantic rules. It is exactly this latter feature that is absent in inanimate nature.”
