6-methylamidopyridine recognition site can participate in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with two maleimides that differ in the relative position of their carboxylic acid recognition site: either para (Mp) or meta (Mm) relative to the maleimide ring. These cycloaddition reactions create replicators trans-Tp and trans-Tm. In isolation, trans-Tp templates its own formation with an efficiency that is markedly greater

The key feature of non-enzymatic self-replicating systems is the formation of catalytically active ternary complexes in which product templates direct precursors into spatial proximity to allow the formation of new covalent bonds. It is possible to create new replicating species by simply evaluating the ternary active complex of an existing replicating system and applying proper isosteric replacements
