These are Molecules that are Easy to String Together, Can Catalyze Any Reaction, and Themselves Be a Source to Make More Molecules. When I was reading my biochemistry text it struck me as very odd of how little it discussed about exactly how RNA and then DNA are synthesized! There was only ONE paragraph on the subject. All it said was that the synthesis of all biomolecules, in cells, BEGINS with the MODIFICATION OF AMINO ACIDS! That was the complete discussion on the synthesis of (and amino acids role in) the synthesis of non-protein molecules. Pay attention here is the key concept: if Life Evolved and by our best estimates has blundered onto the most efficient way to synthesize molecules shouldn't we begin from there? Now shouldn't it make you take notice that life not only breaksdown its food to amino acids, begins all its synthesis with the modifications of amino acids, carries out all its important reactions with amino acids(as proteins), and the most abundant organic m
