Episode 12.2/13: Cell Construction & Assembly Problem // A Course on Abiogenesis by Dr. James Tour

This is Episode 12, PART 2. Part 1 is here: https://youtu.be/IaJo5jWs_6k
In Part 2 of this multipart episode, Dr. James Tour transitions into a discussion on the assembly problem. After a flashback to the unaddressed complex cellular membrane, a separate and bewildering discussion on the Levinthal paradox of interactomes ensues. Dr. Tour then cites a mainline scientific journal with authors stating a miracle is the only explanation for a primitive living cell having the information hurdle accomplished within Earth's time frame, followed by an inspection of what the most basic gene set must look like in order to carry out the necessary functions of cellular life. Can RNA do the same? Did meteors deliver the molecules needed? Those questions are evaluated, and something new is presented, as Dr. Tour says that even if one has all the components, the problem of making the simplest living cell with those components remains. Finally, Dr. Tour shifts the conversation to the positive, providing good targets that origin of life research should solve in this desperate race to reach the finish line before the distance is increased yet again.
