Macromolecular Information Transfer

Macromolecular information transfer can be defined as the process by which a coded monomer sequence is communicated from one macromolecule to another. In such process, kept identical, transformed into complementary or even translated different molecular language. Such mechanisms are crucial in biology and take place DNA→DNA replication, DNA→RNA transcription RNA→protein translation. fact, there would no life on Earth without macromolecular transfer. Mimicking processes with synthetic macromolecules also of major scientific relevance because it open up new avenues for technological applications (e.g. data storage processing) but creation artificial life. this important context, minireview summarizes recent research about oligomers polymers. Medium- long-term perspectives discussed.
