The Evolutionary Origins of the Metabolism and Biosphere

[edit | edit source]

Introduction: The Metabolic & Cellular Transformations Of Geosphere Into Biosphere

[edit | edit source]

The Krebs Cycle, also known as the Citric Acid Cycle (CAC) or Oxidative Citric Acid Cycle (OCC), is generally encountered running in the oxidative direction and dismantles acetate into carbon dioxide while using the energy derived to reduce coenzymes and ultimately produce ATP. It has a counterpart, the Reductive Citric Acid Cycle (RCC) that runs in the reverse direction, assembling carbon dioxide and water into larger complex molecules with carbon backbones.
 
 

It appears on the basis of available facts that the circumstances surrounding the origin of life on Earth are inextricable from the origin of the solar system and Earth itself - the biosphere rising off the geosphere is the one continuous biochemical reaction that has persisted from the beginning of life on earth to the present.

The emergence of a metabolic network capable of autocatalytically building and decomposing the monomeric components required for macromolecular polymerizaion, and cellular encapsulation, marks the crossing point from the inanimate to the animate. The emergence of cellular encapsulation would facilitate the global spread of that metabolic network - thereby, effecting a transformation of the geosphere into bioshpere as the chemistry of the planet changed in response to the input and output of materials derived from the geological substrate (as well as the hydrological and atmospheric environ) through the metabolic networks of the globally distributed cellular populations.

The primary setting for the origin point is postulated to be hydrothermal vent systems forming just after the last major extraterrestrial impactor to boil off the Earths oceans had struck, ~3.9 bya at the end of the Great Bombardment period. As the water vapor condensed and rained down, the first stable terrestrial oceans emerged. Although subsequent impactors would strike that were capable of boiling the oceans, by 3.9 bya the enduring body of water we know as the ocean had been established and would persist long after the last of these impactors struck, up until this day. The planetary dynamics sought equilibrium in the aftermath of planetary accretion and extraterrestrial bombardment. Through the fissures and hydrothermal vents that formed on the surface of the early Earth flowed an up-welling of organic material moving across the mineral surfaces of the vent systems giving rise to a complex environmental chemistry.

Following the work of Graham Cairns-Smith and Günter Wächtershäuser, I will depart from the primordial soup theories of Alexander Oparin, Stanely Miller, Leslie Orgel and others -and, take the position that the metabolism was ignited in the form of a surface-catalyzed reaction system that evolved into a dissipative structure synergistically organized as an autocatalytic Surface Metabolist on the sides of the hydrothermal vent systems of the newly formed Earth. Although it appears that Wächtershäuser (and others) appropriately focused on the reductive citric acid cycle (RCC) as the starting point for the auto catalytic core of the metabolism, I will deviate from Wächtershäuser in that I feel Thomas Cavalier-Smith has appropriately identified Archea and Eukaryotes as sister domains and of relatively recent origin (950 mya), not ancient and primordial (3.5 bya) as had been originally proposed by Carl Woese - an idea that gained widespread acceptance but appears to be a flawed interpretation of the molecular and fossil data.

The goal, ala Elie Metchnikoff, is to elucidate a series of mechanistically continuous and physiologically viable transitions between each stage in the evolution and diversification of life.

Planetary Accretion, Bombardment, and Equilibration

  • Formation of the Heliosphere and planetary solar system (4.6-4.5 bya)
  • Accretion of Earths Primordial Geosphere and Atmosphere
  • Initial atmosphere of H2, He, CH4, N2, NH3, H2O, Metallic Vapors, Noble Gases. Rapid loss of lighter non-polar gases. Gradual accumulation of volcanic outgassing - CO, CO2, H2O, H2S
  • Low abiotic concentrations of molecular oxygen scavenge electrons from other elements resulting in the formation of oxides and an anaerobic environment.
    • H2O, CO, CO2, P2O5
    • Na2O, K2O
    • MgO, CaO, Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2
    • FeO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4
  • Collisional Lunar Event and extraterrestrial bombardment (4.5-3.9 bya)
  • Last impactor large enough to completely boil off Earths oceans. and the first "prebiotic broths", strikes. Large impactors are still capable of boiling the Earths Oceans periodically, but the Great Bombardment is waning and the primary solvent base of the ocean is established permanently.
  • The Ten Million Year Rain - The Condensation of Atmospheric Water Vapors and establishment of the hydrosphere.
  • The final "Prebiotic Soup" of organic and inorganic constituents in a mineral-rich aqueous broth cooked by geological and atomospheric processes surge through the fissures of the Earths crust and mantle and then work their way back to the surface. This solution becomes increasingly dilute as water continues to condense out of the atmosphere and enters the hydrosphere. Non-polar substances partition from aqueous phase and give rise to prebiotic liposphere.
  • Establishment of permanent oceans/beginning of dynamic equilibration of the Geosphere/Hydrosphere (3.9 bya) - [Mantle-Crustal-Atmospheric Redox Couple, Na+,K+,Cl- osmolality]
  • Fe2+ and H2S abundant in seawater precipitates Iron Sulfide.
  • Primordial upwelling of inorganic and abiotic thiorganic molecules from hydrothermal and volcanic sources flow over precipitated Iron Sulfide chimney/vent systems in a continuous flux.
  • Substantial seawater concentrations of Ca2+,Mg2+ limits free/soluble phosphate. Phosphate is sequestered as precipitates of Mg, Ca, Fe, and other metals.
