article_snippet.sent: Now researchers in the US and Italy say researchers in the US and Italy have evidence that DNA-like fragments may have come with 'instructions' that guided researchers in the US and Italy growth into complex life forms 4 billion years ago.

article_snippet.sent: The researchers believe DNA-like fragments used The researchers innate self-evolving abilities to grow into repeated chemical chains long enough to evolve into primitive life.
article_snippet.sent: The new study, however, claims to provide an alternative theory by arguing primordial DNA-like fragments evolved in this way instead.
article_snippet.sent: Many origin-of-life researchers found the self-assembly of DNA fragments just a few nanometres in length have the ability to drive the formation of chemical bonds.
article_snippet.sent: Our observations are suggestive of what may have happened on the early Earth when the first DNA-like molecular fragments appeared,' said CU-Boulder physics Professor Noel Clark, a study co-author.
article_snippet.sent: The new study suggests that the way in which DNA emerged in the early Earth Earth lies in Earth structural properties and Earth ability to self-organise.
