The evolutionary dynamics of metabolic protocells
PLOS Computational Biology, 2018 Protocell multilevel selection models have been proposed to study the evolutionary dynamics of vesicles encapsulating a set of replicating, competing and mutating sequences. The frequency of the different sequence types determines protocell survival through a fitness function.

The origin of biological macromolecules on the earth. The hypothesis of inorganic template [PDF]
Studies about the origin of life are reviewed. The nonrandom organization of organelles is discussed from a structural and functional point of view. After postulating that the origin of biomacromolecules was not a random event, the paper develops the ...

Silicasomes in Oncology: From Conventional Chemotherapy to Combined Immunotherapy
MoleculesThe use of nanoparticles as drug carriers in oncology has evolved from their traditional role as chemotherapy carriers to their application in immunotherapy, exploiting not only their passive accumulation in solid tumors but also their ability to ...

Conditions for emergent synchronization in protocells
, 2007 A major aspect of the dynamics of a populations of protocells, is that, in order to assure sustainable growth, the genetic material and container productions must be synchronized if they are coupled. In a previous work [10] we have shown that such synchronization is an emergent property in many relevant protocell models, assuming both linear and ...
