There is more to a paradox than credence
Besides the usual business of solving paradoxes, there has been recent philosophical work on their essential nature. Lycan characterises a paradox as “an inconsistent set of propositions, each of which is very plausible”.

متن کاملDNA-templated synthesis: more versatile than expected.
It has been known for almost twenty years that nucleic acids may promote chemical reactions. Catalytic nucleic acids can be found in nature or evolved through in vitro selection processes.[1] Structural and functional investigations suggest that catalytically active nucleic acids act in a similar manner to enzymes: they promote chemical reactions through the precise spatial alignment of the rea...
