Is there any way we can find out it? Like I don't know binding GFP to ribosomes and setting this up so complex will emit light if it translated one mRNA?

As far as I know it can happen between only nucleoside triphosphates, but not between nucleoside monophosphate. And nucleoside monophosphate can't become nucleoside triphosphates without enzymes abiotically. If I'm wrong correct me.

My question is could it happen in prebiotic world without any enzymes?

it just sounds physically impossible

>That being said, the paper below suggests one to millions per generation (Figure S1 supplemental), which they define as a minimum of about 21.5 minutes (varies substantially).
Wait does it mean 10^6/(21,5*60)≈ 775 translations per second for one mRNA in e.coli on average ? Or am I confused?

So next question is how many times per hour mRNA transcript gets translated on average?

Are there any studies about this estimate?
