RNA World hypothesis assumes that once there was the time when RNA played main role on the field of life. According to this theory RNA strands acted both as information carriers and catalysers of chemical reactions. Despite many evidences that RNA world existed and predated current life based on DNA there is still a lot of unanswered questions and troubles to solve. We conducted series of computer simulations based on modified model of Monte Carlo simulation of RNA world. Model bases on real chemical processes operating on RNA strands. In our simulations we put an eye on RNA recombination processes. According to many researchers these processes might lead to elongation of RNA chains and creation of novel sequences in the solution. These new RNA chains could have catalytic activities and serve as RNA replicase. Outcomes of computer simulations let us assume that RNA recombination processes are important phenomena in the RNA world and might lead to significant RNA chains elongation.
