Primes¶
- Asymmetry
- The homochirality of biological amino acids (almost exclusively L-) and sugars (almost exclusively D-) is a substrate-furthest case of an asymmetry: pure structure, no agents, with profound downstream consequences for the biochemistry that organisms can sustain, a pattern Bonner (1991) surveyed in his foundational review of the origin and amplification of biomolecular chirality.
This sourceFoundational review of biological homochirality (almost-exclusive L-amino acids and D-sugars) as a substrate-furthest case of structural asymmetry, surveying the proposed mechanisms by which a small parity-derived enantiomeric excess could be amplified to biological dominance.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
