Instance Specification Systems Chemistry
Systems Chemistry - an early definition (Venice 2005)*
• A conjunction of supramolecular and prebiotic chemistry with theoretical biology and complex systems research addressing problems relating to the origins and synthesis of life.
• The bottom-up pendant of systems biology towards synthetic biology.
• Searching for a deeper understanding of structural and dynamic prerequisites leading to chemical self-replication and self-reproduction.
• The quest for the coupling of autocatalytic systems, the integration of metabolic, genetic, and membrane-forming subsystems into protocellular entities.
• The quest for the roots of Darwinian evolvability in chemical systems.
• The quest for chiral-symmetry breaking and asymmetric autocatalysis in such systems.
